Why did good car design die after the 2000s?
>>
>>28621133
Regulations
>>
>>28621133
It did for most, but not for all. This design is 11 years old btw.

70 years ago people like you would have been diagnosed with something and thrown into a mental institution to rot
now freakazoids like you are out and about

safety demands crumple zones and emissions demands aero
fwiw i think the new Chrysler stuff actually looks quite good. but i wouldnt buy it for obvious reasons

Feels like most Japanese cars became weird looking during the 2000s

>>28621133
it didn't

>>28622470
yes it did
that's why they're making and naming dogshit after iconic models from decades past so often nowadays

*1990s

>>28624257
I almost said 1990s but then I remembered the '02 350Z and I just couldn't leave my boy out in the cold like that.
>>
>>28624431
350z is ugly so we can assume it's some kind of nostalgia blinding your senses
>>
>>28624198
>chrysler pared down to bare essentials
>it's only minivans
I think that's really a testament to when a car company is reduced to nothing, the minivan will always be there for them, same as the people who own them.

I can't think of anything more poetic to say about that.

Global regulatory nonsense killed anything resembling passion in automotive design. Ffs, the europoors demand cars sold there be designed to protect pedestrians when they are struck....

It's 2025. Figure out how to not get hit by a car.

you being a gay nigger doesn't make it ugly

You can like how they drive but don't deny that it's genuinely hideous.

The best looking car of the 2000s by a long shot. There is not a single car in existence that does triangular rear lights right with the 350Z Coupé being the sole exception.
The roadster looks like ass btw, it's painfully obvious it was an afterthought.

But, you see, NIGGERS always have right of way. They can anally rape your entire family with a screwdriver and its YOUR fault for not gibbing infinity gibs!

Lol, the 350z was never great looking

Calling it the BEST looking is straight up retarded

Government interference, aka regulations.

>look at me I have shit taste
I mean I don't blame you for having it but your opinion is invalid to me.
btw the box car era will never return and it's for the better, really the only car design trend worse than today's shitboxes
