    Honestly I think they look pretty good.

    But Elon is a fuck. And their build quality is shit. And I refuse to support that kind of company. And fuck people who do support them.

      To me they are the iPhone of cars. In a vacuum they are not bad looking, but every single one looks exactly the same. Just basic.

        To me that’s kind of just the design language. Like how all BMWs look similar, or all Mazda’s look similar. Etc. Typically a strong recognizable brand is considered good, even in the auto industry.

        And really idgaf if they all look the same. Model s, smaller model s (3), bigass model s(x), medium size Model s(y). That’s fine. I don’t need a single brand to offer everything, I can go to other brands for variety.

        That said, fuck Tesla.

      They used to, but they haven’t updated them, so now they look dated

        I’m not a car guy, I just don’t pay close attention. I drove a delivery van when the Tesla cars were gaining popularity, and I straight up had the thought one day how weird it was that there were a lot of '90s Ford Taurus sedans still on the road.

        I won’t go so far to say they’re timeless, obviously, but I think the design has holding power. Their design language isn’t especially bold but it’s not out of place compared to newly released models from competitors. It’s disappointing that they haven’t made any bold changes, but I don’t think that means they’re dated.

        But still, fuck em.
