so does mold...

 

I think the Prime looks fabulous. An improvement over the Prius. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder


iPhone ?

When I first saw the Prime, it made me think of several Chrysler models from the 1950s - not in any specific design characteristics, but in how I thought they looked bad when they were new, looked worse after a few years, and still don't look good decades later. The Prime has features that make up for its looks, but I think expecting the appearance to grow on you is wishful thinking.

 

Of the various Prii, I like gen 3 best for looks alone. But looks is not what brought me to a Prime.

 

I only say that because it has for me, but as you point out, we have yet to see how that look ages. I notice that many Japanese cars, at least, have taken to this rather harsh angular styling (video arcade styling), as opposed to my preferred classically smooth and curvy styling. Time will tell. In the meantime all the terrific features, efficiency, and reliability, easily cancel out any awkwardness I feel with the design.

My first thought was this mouli grater. The double bubble window reminded me of the food bin. sad thing is, I still have one somewhere...

 

Totally agree; one of my all-time favorites! How about the Ferrari Dino 246GTS, to honor his son!! A touching and beautiful little car!!

Alright, alright, how about the Alfa Romeo GTZ Tubolare Zagato and the Sprint Speciale??!!!

You gotta love these little beauties!!
