My favourite thing about these fucking shitheaps is the anisotropy of the different panels. A massive giveaway that the build quality and attention is fucking garbage.

See how the reflections on the doors travel in different directions - essentially, thats anisotropy. Brushed metal (in this case) has a direction in which it has been treated, so the reflections and light travel along that surface direction. Mismatch those and it sticks out a mile. It's one of the first things you sort on this type of fabrication - even DeLorean had it covered in the 80's. Paint jobs are all done in one direction to prevent this effect from appearing.

How anyone can say anything positive about this is beyond me.

"you just don't understand how decades of improvement in crumple zones and saving lives was actually a bad thing, cars should be steel tanks that don't handle physics at all, going back at 1960s car design is true forward thinking innovation."

Elon doesn't understand physics of car crashes so he sure as fuck didn't do the actual work to make rockets, he paid people to create his drawings from when he was 10.

I hear those things are a masterpiece of engineering. They're made to within 10 microns. You know, like a Lego!

I definitely picture that matrix dude from Grandma's Boy driving one of these.

What's the / explanation for the literal ducttape

The wheels are so badly mismatched to the design of the body. I guess the trucks are still in pre-/alpha

Looking to buy a Tesla soon. May need to wait for this cybertruck.

I think the more I look at it the less ugly it looks.

If you're truly wanting attention when driving around town then this is it.

Nitter

Primitive and ugly design. Who's dumb enough to buy this hunk of junk?

This is my favorite unlockable vehicle in Blast Corps

other car manufacturers do put a film in some front and back areas to protect the car during transit to dealerships, but it's not duct tape. it's more like a cling film without the gobs of adhesive that can dry and leave residue that duct tape has

The newest in child killing technology. Fuck big trucks. And super fuck it being a Tesla. It's like, how much more asshole could you get?

I'd never buy it, but I do like how it looks.
