I too think these things look awesome - and it’s a true hatchback! Given how unloved they have been perhaps it has the potential to be a comeback hit at some point...but my biggest problem is this -

“In an unreported letter going to Biden Monday, Democratic Senators Alex Padilla and Dianne Feinstein called on Biden”

As a long time window shopper for enthusiast cars, the one thing I would say: Take the time to write a competent ad with a good set of pictures. VERY few people do. I’m always willing to pay more to someone who doesn’t look like an idiot or dishonest.
