Blame the Miura. https://jalopnik.com/wait-the-lamborghini-miura-has-fake-exhaust-tips-1849128827.

Any car with a tinted license plate cover, the mo’ tinted the mo’ worse.

Don’t mean to be cynical, but I’m pretty sure that the “real” reason for the start/stop function is that having it installed results in a higher MPG figure in the EPA test cycles.

Or full EV.

One indication of how great the Element is: you can’t find a used Element without hella high mileage and, even still, they’re pricey.

My brother and I debate the merits of the BMW E9x v. E46, but agree post E9x, the 3- (and now 4-) series is mostly crap.

BMW i3 or VW egolf — $20K — daily driving around
Zero FXE — $12K — daily riding around
BMW e91 wagon (with N54/N55 motor swap) — $30K — longer trips, hauling stuff or people
Porsche 987 Boxster — $35K — needs no justification

Manual 928S for ~30K?

Bright red rear lights that go on with the front fog lights.

Knoblessness.

Don’t like fake exhaust vents, blame Marcello Gandini for the Lamborghini Miura and its fake vents.

Maybe it’s not so much customers getting impatient as customers realizing that the Lucid Air looks like a malaise-era Buick.

VW Golf or a Mazda3.

928 all day long.

No view under the hood, which would reveal a ton of empty space and that the hood shape, height, and length is absolutely unnecessary and could easily be reduced to improve forward visibility. So that a driver could, you know, actually see stuff in front of them. Like small children.

Yes and no. The floor liners were a disaster. (First gen.)

Save the sidewalls.
