Unfortunately, the styling is one of the standards that isn’t better. Cars from the 40s-60s had some of the most evocative styling ever put to sheet metal (and some even did well into the 70s). Real style pretty much evaporated in the 80s and early 90s, with few exceptions, and only by looking back to machines styled for the customer’s eye instead of the wind tunnel have manufacturers injected interest into car-buying again.
I agree. Aesthetically speaking, there is little sign of passion or excitement in most modern cars unless you are buying a premium car.
Of course I would have to agree.
