There’s just no way to prepare yourself for how hideous the thing is when you see it up close. I’m all for electric cars, and you drive what you drive, but the dingy metal and stupid shape makes it look like the bastard love child of the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz and a Transformer made by somebody who had used several fine vintages of methamphetamine that day. And people pay what, almost 200K, for this monstrosity?
Really they are awful in photos but there’s no way to really tell how ugly that thing is up close.
On one hand I’m happy they aren’t for sale here. But on the other hand I am perversely curious about seeing the abomination up close.
It truly is a magical experience when you first see one in person. Despite how they look when photographed, somehow cameras make them appear less absurd than they actually are. It’s just so large, so ridiculous, it doesn’t seem like it should be real—and yet it is. The first time I saw one in a parking lot, I genuinely couldn’t stop laughing and had to reign it in, despite seeing them online a hundred times before then.
That was my reaction, pure mirth. Like how ridiculous does someone look behind the wheel of that thing.
I saw one of the silver ones yesterday (I saw one with a black wrap on it at a distance once), and there’s no preparing yourself from pictures how damned ugly it is.
The pewter or whatever that brown color is called it even worse.
