You know, the extra curvy crazy body panels can be cool looking sometimes, but I still wish they'd ship the engineers that build and design these cars out to Alaska in the winter and make them disassemble and reassemble the cars a couple of times before they ship them -- the increasingly custom body panels and designs has made it much more difficult to fix what's there or even get the cars apart for service.
- kazinator 11y agoCurvy body panels look good as long as there are some sharp curves in the right places. If there is nothing but low-curvature, then the vehicle just looks fat. We look at cars like we look at human bodies. The classic sports car shape has a waits and hips. :) Fat can be cute though: if a sub-compact hatch-back is round in the right way. Classic VW beetle, the new Minis, 5th gen Civic ... (This still jives with the human body theory. We excuse the little cars for being chubby because they are babies.)
- nosuchthing 11y agoIt seems to be an intentional design choice. Body shop work, OEM bumpers and panels feast upon the ubiquitous automobile accident.
