And what a hideous sight it was. It looks awkwardly tall from the rear and generally very ungainly.

I live close to a Mitsubishi dealership, looking at this thing next to an Evo, is like looking at a Maybach next to a Geo Metro.

That's not even the worst of it. The 2014s come with three iPad Minis! That does sound cool...only that all three of the iPads were sloppily added to the car with what almost look like really bad aftermarket mounts.
The "main" iPad sits front and centre ON TOP of the dash. The thing blocks your view out of the windscreen and is just really poorly thought out. It looks silly, is a target for thieves, and is a HUGE safety hazard. Get rear ended and you're going to get a face full of Apple.
The other two iPads are carelessly mounted to the seatbacks of the front seats. A good bump in a road would bounce them out of their cradles. Oh, and they're so easy to steal that by the second day of the Public Show of the Chicago Auto Show, all but one of the rear seat iPads were stolen...
BaconSandwich is tasty.

That's sad in more than one regard: that people would steal them, and that in order to be attractive, it needs to include an iPad.
I suppose that at least they are only stuck in a cradle - it makes them easier to remove/replace later on. I hate to think how unattractive something like the dashboard of a Tesla Model S will look in 20 years.

And that it rides on tires thinner than some mountain bikes.

I'm sorry to hear that.
On another note, walking home from school I saw a Maserati GranTurismo and two straight piped Subaru Rexes. No SR20 because *excellent* battery life in my iPod.
