I absolutely hated the round car era from circa 2005 - circa 2024.Almost every new version of an old car released since then - such as the Honda Passport, Subaru Outback, Toyota 4Runner, Ford Bronco, Kia Telluride etc. etc. etc. is far more boxier than its predecessor.Are you happy for this shift? Or not ?https://m.youtube.com/shorts/nv7lUHcqzsY
Add to this list, the Lexus GX460. I like GX550 better. Very square and blocky. Very simple design. Unlike the weird gay curvy look of 460
The Forester has never not been pretty boxy
>>28921378The perfect car shape to me is a 2000-2020 Aston Martin, Jag f-type or Maserati Granturismo. This truck and box shift has been the worst thing that's ever happened in my eyes and the sooner we can get return to proper cars that look like they slip through the air rather than beat it into submission the better.
>>28921378box shape is popular now so i think its gay. bring back round. soul
this nu-boxy style is shit and appeals largely to jeets
>>28921378> RomanianWhere do you steal your cars from?
Cars have got more rounded and blobby now if anything. Cases in point:
>>28921378>Are you happy for this shift?Yeah.
>>28921378>make a saloon car>has less space than sedan???????the fuck were they smoking back then?
>>28921378Yeah but imagine if it had the same shape but with the dimensions of the old outback. That would actually be sick. Like a V70
>>28921384That's not a Forester
Are you kidding me? Cars look like rolling monstrosities today, because curvy or boxy wasn't the problem, it was the FUCKING SIZE AND PROPORTIONS. I saw a new Forester and that pos looks ATROCIOUS. Same for ANY new ""SUV"" or ""TRUCK"". Sedans have been the same gaudy plastic eggs since 2015, nothing's changed there. There is not a single brand that makes an objectively good looking car today, NOT ONE. (obviously in the sub arm-and-a-leg price point or the mega ultra hyper limited production stuff)
>>28921378>Are you happy for this shift? Or not ?Not really, because aside from two or three specific vehicles like the Wrangler and Bronco they are all LARP vehicles. Transverse-engined Kia, Toyota, Honda CUVs and so on are all now sold with LARP packages where you get the black wheels, fake silver-plastic skid plates and "rugged" black cladding that not even serious 4x4s 20 years ago would've had. Were this the '90s, all these popular cuckovers would've at least been RWD/4x4 and body on frame (and boxy). That is to say I don't find the styling terrible per se, but now more than ever normies seem to treat these car-based crossovers like they're straight up trucks.If "boxier shaped cars" meant Camaros shaped like 3rd gens, Ford sedans shaped like an old LTD, Fleetwood/Eldorado shaped Cadillacs, R129-shaped Mercedes SLs and so on then absolutely, it'd be kino.>>28921749The liftback-ification of sedans is something I particularly hate. Sedans are losing the traditional three-box design and all turning into jellybean shit, counter to OPs point (which I believe only applies to cuckovers/SUVs)
>>28921378With few exceptions, the era between 1990s and 2020 is a bulbous, egg shaped dystopian dark age. Boxy is always an instant classic
