Except those look a lot better to me for some reason. Maybe it's the attention to detail, however misshaped they happen to be.


The tesla is just an odd, too tall, bubble at the rear end.

I see at least 5 to 10 Teslas a day here it seems so I'll be on the lookout.

The cars look neat to me

Looks like an early model scion had relations with a TUMS inspired calcium loaded turd. I'll pass.

Yeah, I'm actually a big fan of Tesla as a whole, as well as their other two models. I just can't believe this one made it to production as it stands.

I wasn't a fan when I first saw one and thought that it looked odd. However, my wife wanted one and the thing has grown on me like no vehicle before. Perhaps it's the driving experience and interior that put it over the top, like a good soundtrack can do for a movie. I've gotten used to no front grill as well and think that the grill on my vehicle looks dated. Also, the first time I saw the falcon wing doors come up, I was amazed at the engineering. It's a niche vehicle to be sure, because it actually does not offer significantly more space besides headroom than the model S, and can't accommodate roof racks while the model S can.

I don't know why we keep seeing more of these "hatchback" shaped cars popping up. There is no fricking way people like those..

I don't hate them, but they fit into the conversation of oddly proportioned. They're pretty widely mocked in the automotive industry for their looks as well.
