yeah...i feel we are starting to get into another period of time when car designs begin looking strange/weird in a quest to look 'different' or 'more modern'.
its like "oh hey, this new car is electric, can you tell?"
very few of these designs feel timeless as the Z, or maybe im just getting old...

This is one of the things that annoys me about car design. Just because it's hybrid or electric doesn't mean it shouldn't just look like a car. I hated the Prius for years because the styling was different. As hybrids and EVs evolved you started to see "normal" designs, but we're not fully there yet.

"The charges filed on Tuesday allege employees at Nissan of Shelby failed to disclose damage to customers, didn’t inspect vehicles being sold and neglected to transfer titles to car buyers.
The charges come five months after a WBTV Investigation found totaled cars and flooded vehicles listed for sale by Nissan of Shelby and sold to unsuspecting customers.
In February, WBTV started digging on the website autoAstat, searching thousands of past vehicle auctions. We found nearly a dozen cars Nissan of Shelby either bought or sold at insurance salvage auctions with several of them ending up for sale on their website.
More charges were brought for improper use of temporary tags and false statements about the sale date of cars."

Dealership GM has been fired. COO says they have appropriate documentation for everything and charges will be dismissed.

Nissan earned its second-to-last spot for collecting some of the creepiest categories of data we have ever seen. It’s worth reading the review in full, but you should know it includes your “sexual activity.” Not to be out done, Kia also mentions they can collect information about your “sex life” in their privacy policy. Oh, and six car companies say they can collect your “genetic information” or “genetic characteristics.” Yes, reading car privacy policies is a scary endeavor.

At least Kia denied or clarified some of the allegations.
I also get tired of the alphabet soup and diversity marketing emails Nissan sends to me regularly.
Can't they just focus on making vehicles? You know the ship is adrift when they lose focus on the mission....
