The design of cars is disappointing. Cars don't evolve, they only iterate. Why don't car companies innovate both the driving experience and the sales experience? Commercials tout luxury, practicality, and style but how stylish could it be if most every car looks the god damned same and it replicates but doesn't improve upon your phone's navigation system? Or how cool could it be if the person selling these machines didn't tell you why he really needs this sale.

For the sake of simplicity in terms of design, let's just talk about physical appearance. I feel like most cars on the road look the same.
Look at this sexy BMW with a Vintage Makeover on Messy Nessy Chic. Yow. It looks ah-mazing, right?
Well, this is a custom job. Don't expect this kind of style from the car manufacturing industry.

| Can you imagine if modern cars actually innovated? |
To tease us, Fiat released a "1957 edition" pictured next to their actual vintage version.
Do you see the resemblance? Me neither.
I want the body on the right and the engine on the left!

| Vintage gender thinking: the idea that white people are wealthy & awesome & dudes ALWAYS drive. How about he's opening the driver's seat for her? Or they're both getting into their own cars? Or they're people of color? Or they're gay? or Trans. #inclusion! |
