I don't understand car aesthetics. With vintage cars, or luxury or sports cars, the aesthetics make sense, but amongst reliable, affordable automobiles, I can't tell what makes one nice and another ugly. They all just look like generic plastic bubbles to me, they're all made from the same materials, they were all stamped out in a factory. We may as well be discussing the aesthetics of screwdrivers or milk cartons. Still, you get guys who haven't bought a new shirt in 5 years, their homes are filled with mismatched Ikea junk, they don't give a fuck about how anything looks until you bring up cars, and suddenly passions are inflamed. What's worse, is that the fixation is all about the car itself, when in reality they come bundled with all sorts if infrastructure that's almost exclusively hideous. Nobody looks at a gas station, a parking lot, or a freeway interchange and says 'my, what a beautiful sight, I want to build my home right here so my livingroom window can overlook this fabulous vista'. Block that shit out and fixate on the car itself.
