It doesn't have to be a real production car, it can also be a concept.

For me, it has to be the 1997 Dodge Copperhead. This ugly chungus just speaks to me and I don't know why. It is hideous, Pontiac Aztek levels of ugly, but I kinda wish Dodge actually sold it. It wasn't going to be gutless, sharing much with the Viper, but it also wasn't going to have the same price of the Viper (Viper at the time was ~$75k, this baby would have been ~$30k). For the price, a little ugly isn't that big of a deal for a similar powertrain. Surely a facelift kit could help it out some.

Just thought a discussion like this could be fun. What cars are the same for you?

Look, fuck Nazis and Elon but I repeat myself. And there is a lot wrong with the vehicle overall. But I really don't hate the cybertruck's aesthetic.

It's ok to be wrong sometimes

Have you ever seen one in person? It's like it was put together by a three year old.

I laugh every time I see one. There were a lot around here and I see far, far less now than I did even 6 months ago

I have to work very hard not to screw up my face when the customer comes to pick up things with one and ask, "are you sure it can handle all that?"

It definitely is... Unique... I can give it that. Personally I prefer my unpainted stainless vehicles to look a little more DMC than Tesla, but I cannot deny it has a brutalist-esque aesthetic that catches the eye.
