The absolute state of the autost industry. Driver 03/31/2018 (Sat) 03:46:34 Id: d2f354 No. 15609
>skynet car >dyke wagon >dog slipper >simon bisley designs a concept car Is this an early April Fool's joke? This is it. Really? I could pull up a car catalog from like 1995 and have a better time. https://archive.fo/mDuFS
>>15609 the future belogs to self driving e-crossovers shitlord, deal with it
>subaru = dyke car This part always amazed me about American car culture. When, why and how the fuck did Subaru come to be associated with lesbians? Thankfully it looks as though the association has not tainted the legacy of the Impreza there, o shit I just noticed that sick unintentional pun but what the hell happened? Was it something that occurred naturally or was there a point in the 90s/early 00s when SoA consciously made the decision to appeal to that market sector in particular?
>>15611 I'll be honest I've always associated Subaru with soccer moms and the standard brand fanboys that think AWD means they are literally incapable of hydroplaning. I've never heard the lesbian thing.
I want a Hybrid sports sedan
The LTC model TX5 cab offers adequate highway traversal to a total of 8 people while providing high miles per gallon and safety precautions that simply were not there 30 years ago. If the damn thing's reliable it'll be breath-takingly good at taking a family's worth of crap across any given country. What you also can't fail to notice is that it's breath-takingly ugly. Design remit and design purpose are not the same thing. Of course it meets the remit. It's designed to be a box and does it's job exceedingly well. But the ambition to make the box look like a spaceship or a stiletto is dead. Excruciatingly dead - infact design principles in general are dead. I could tell you that regulations killed them off, but the same thing appears in pokemon and pokemon aren't regulated. The simple answer is that art colleges lost their shit and dumbed down their curriculum. I don't know why they did it. I don't know what's in it for them seeing as you would think that cheapening your product would eventually bite you in the ass. Perhaps with there being no barrier to entry and so many wannabe art students, these colleges keep making money and don't get held to account by said people who can't tell that their tuition prepares them for nothing and is shit. All I can say is that the reality is ugly so I'm left pining for car designs from the 50's.
Every year cars will get cuckier and cuckier. I did hear recently that the EPA is looking at scaling back their emissions regulations at the request of "the auto industry", which is nice if true. Doesn't change how stupid people are. >>15611 I think it's just the Forester. Not sure where the stereotype came from.
>>15618 Meanwhile, Euroland passed a bill that required for every new car to have an automatic system that calls the services in case of a crash. Which mens mandatory tracking systems too. Which means spying your every wheel turn.
>>15609 That Audi doesn't look bad, but its Audi so its trash. The Corolla looks like a slightly more stylish Ford Focus with an uglier interior Everything else is disgusting, especially the Altima which Nissan has somehow made look the same for the last 10 years but gets worse and worse.
>>15611 Subaru had commercials that catered to both fags and normal people. In one they had two men that could have been father and son or fudge smashers. They were ambiguous enough for either audience.
>>15650 audi did some lgbt ads as well, which only confirms that audi is a buttpirate's first choice when it comes to german cars.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmQXyZQmzf4 >modern car design Back in highschool I wanted to be a car designer. Now I'm realizing how much of a bullet I was dodging. I would have to be subordinate to lead designers that put out cucked shit like this. I'm still a poor mechanic though, h-haha Sam was right when he said modern cars are pretty much designed to turn you into a cuckold. You can feel it when you're in modern cars. Something is just missing, something exciting - fun, sexy. It's all gay soccermom-friendly shit now.
