I really wonder if this is just an average shitty car and dumb people buying it ir something historically stupid. Like in 10 years. Youtubers make top ten videos about the dumbest car ever and on number one they are all like: well, we all know what that is, so we might as well skip it.

Historical stupid.

My 2 unprofessional cents, I think the way this vehicle was executed wrong. Everybody understands metal rust even if it's stainless steel, if you don't take care of it correctly it will rust. Second, sharp angles on vehicles that will be used by family's is by far reckless, videos show how sharp they are and how the front trunk can do some real damage to body parts. Lastly, we moved away from strong body structure to prevent deaths when accidents happen. Why are we going back to the 60's car body structure? Yes we might have better safety equipment in vehicles now, but we still have vehicles that just have 1 airbag, seatbelts, and bad body structure safety.

The 21st century DeLorean, only no one bothered making a time machine out of it.
