Unpopular Opinions- Cars in General

[GranTurNismo]

Unpopular Opinion: Dodge Coronet Super Bee> Charger R/T. Both cars received the same engines and had the same 0-60 times, so performance was nearly identical, though the Charger was slightly faster as it weighed less. That being said, the Coronet is the better looking car, hence why I like it more. I have a soft spot for muscle cars that are too large. Plus, the Coronet is quite underrated, while the Charger is one of the most popular classic muscle cars of all time.

Look at the front, you can't be serious.

I'm serious, the front is one of the Coronet's best aspects.

I think both look equally as good. The Coronet has a sweet front end in my point of view.

Looks like an aliens face.

Aliens are cool.

As much as I prefer '68 Charger in terms of looks, Polyphony Digital seems to agree with you on the Coronet.

Any car can be an "enthusiast" car. You just need to be an enthusiast.

Could the same be said about fully-autonomous cars, though?

If somebody is an enthusiast of fully autonomous cars, then yes.

 

[SiriusR]

I can see myself being enthusiastic about autonomous vehicles, as I'd much rather trust driving to the AI to the vast majority of individuals who doesn't enjoy driving.

Unpopular opinion: People who constantly go out of their way to criticize and hate on stanced cars can be just as annoying as stance bros themselves.

 

[Janteag]

Unpopular opinion: I actually kinda like the 996 generation of the Porsche 911, at least in terms of it's styling.

Honestly, it just doesn't seem to be as aesthetically displeasing to me as people make it out to be sometimes.

Unpopular opinion: Spinners should make a comeback, and can look cool on many tuner cars (like the ones they had for them in NFSU2) and even exotic cars.

I know plenty of people are happy that Mercedes monoblocks have returned. But I just don't think they fit the modern AMGs like they did for the older ones. 23" on the new GLS63... They just don't look right.

 

[TexRex]

Christ on a bike...that GLS needs to not have a 32" tire. There appears to be nowhere for it to travel.

I’m not sure if this is more a guilty pleasure but it’s pretty recent and controversial so I’ll say it here.

I like the Cybertruck, damn it. I really like it. Laugh all you want but that’s the way I feel. It reminds me of something you’d see in a cyberpunk setting or cheesy 80’s action movie.

 

[SiriusR]

I still have some concerns regarding Cybertruck, but I like the way it looks.
Is it a low effort design (or at least looks like such)? - sure
Do I find it rad regardless? - yes

It's kinda sad that Cybertruck is apparently designed this way as a marketing stunt more than anything though. But oh well.

Supposedly theres already about 150,000 orders, but again its a fully refundable $100 deposit. wonder how many of those orders are just investors who are going to "sell" the order to someone else for more money when/if they really start the manufacturing process

 

[mustafur]

Tesla's are great powertrains riding on garbage bodies.

 

[TheNuvolari]

Honestly I'm not that big fan of Lamborghini's recent 'Y'-style headlights.

 

[TexRex]

BBS mesh/lace wheels are nothing special.

 

[Fastcarguy]

Theres nothing wrong with SUV's/ pickup trucks.

 

[GTV0819]

Theres nothing wrong with SUV's/ pickup trucks.

But some people will still despise them, regardless.

 

[GranTurNismo]

I guess this is an unpopular opinion for this site. I prefer the design of the new BMW 8-Series over the outgoing 6-Series.

Most new Porsches are way overpriced and aren't as good of a value as competitors from other brands.

Concept cars don't belong in the Cars You Never Knew About... Until Now! thread.

Concept cars don't belong in the Cars You Never Knew About... Until Now! thread.

Why? If they are cars I never knew existed, shouldn't they count as well? The concept car thread gets less traffic than the Cars You Never Knew About thread so sometimes I'm more inclined to post them there instead.

I wouldn't kick that can over, or we'll have yet another thread for some vague category of vehicles people just want to post a picture of.
