Seriously now, what is the deal with all these car manufacturers/designers and thinking that people want their ultra-econo cars to look like a fucking [green puke fish?](http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/03/08/cars.fish.popsci/index.html?eref=rss_topstories) But anyway, what is with the styling in general on these new econocars. Great idea and all, I just think that they look butt ugly. Why can’t they make them look like a “normal” car? Hell, I even think Ford’s new cars look better … Then again, maybe its just a Euro thing, and we probably won’t see anything like this in Stateside for awhile. Who knows, I sure as hell don’t get it. ---
