CAN YOU MAKE IT LOOK *MORE* LIKE A JELLY BEAN?

Blogdaughter Machelle of Quality Weenie has a picture of the new 2006 Impala.

*sigh*

I hate the CAFE standards. For the sake of gas mileage, EVERY car on the market looks boring, round, & bubbly.

It's all about aerodynamics nowadays, and these designs make me want to cry.

I miss chrome trim. I miss square headlights. I miss body-styling that included angles & corners & edges & sharp lines. If I wanted smooth, undifferentiated curves, I'd look at a tennis ball or a bowl full of marbles.

Doesn't anybody make gaudy, tasteless, impractical cars anymore?

3 That's probably why I like the PT Cruiser. It's a box on wheels. No bubble cars for me... at least not in my dreams. I'm over this whole big bubble mini van thing.

4 Just Googled the C300. The new ones remind me of the taxi from Who Framed Roger Rabbit - all bloated & cartoonish. Up to 79 though, they were long-ass, gaudy, ugly things... which is what I'm lookin' for :-)
