One car company recently went from awesome to completely ugly ... Toyota ... with the 2010 Prius.
This was the concept 2010 Prius:
This is what the actual 2010 Prius looks like:
The wind has been knocked out my sails completely if the following rumor is true ...
Aptera's final production design:
One of the things that drew me to the Aptera was it's radical departure from today's automobile design. This "new design" (if true) is a huge letdown to everyone that has adamantly supported Aptera for the past two years.
I love the original design:
I doubt I'd even take the new design if it were given to me.

To be honest, I think all of these designs are down right and butt UGLY! I'm not sure I would want to be caught dead standing besides one, let alone driving one. I'll take a Mercedes SL 550 any day - now that's what I call a good design, even a sexy design! These cars could always get an award for being the ugliest though, I will admit!

Some of us like to drive ... some of us dream of flying.
I'm a dreamer.
I happen to think this is the most beautiful design for a car ever ... the old design.
That second Aptera design doesn't strike me as significantly different from the first...It's a little less funky, but it's nowhere near as radically poorer as the final 2010 Prius design is relative to the concept.
That being said, I find the idea of a "final production Aptera" design someone hard to believe - they've made it very clear it's the shape it is for aerodynamic reasons.
