I think they are very impressive looking iconic cars in a vacuum, like DeLoreans. Everything else is really unfortunate about then, but imo the eyesore part largely comes from the -very justified- cultural baggage and pretty much that only.

    Without the cultural baggage, yeah, they are interesting looking from the side and front quarter angles. But the back side undeniably looks like a trash can or dumpster. I was behind one yesterday with a pink/green hueshift wrap. When I was in traffic behind it, it just looked like I had a green dumpster in front of me lol.

    Nah they're ugly af.

    If you wrap them (like you should), then you can make them look cool though. Some of my favorites that I've seen are bright pink, yellow, and various wraps covered in decals.

    Without wrapping them, they look like scrap metal on wheels.
