When the cybertruck was first announced, I actually appreciated how different it looked, but its performance and association to Musk has entirely ruined any hope of me ever liking a low-poly vehicle ever again.
I know this sounds really pathetic to say out loud now that it's a confirmed flop, but I never liked the look.
I dunno, the original Lotus esprit is still pretty cool in my book
I thought it would look unique in a geeky way. Instead it looks unique in a Nazi way. That's not my vibe. Killed my enthusiasm for owning something that I knew most people would hate. Also costing twice as much and being a piece of shit.
I saw a concept car and expected to see a radically different version on the road. As a design study, I thought it had potential.
