I saw an i3 during my lunch break.

Seeing it again reenforced my previous observation that it is about the ugliest car on the road. it doesn't have any good angles. Hell, from behind it looks like it is frowning at you because it has become self-aware and knows that it is ugly. BMW, you need to do something about that.

I agree that they are ugly, however they do look much better in black than any other color. Like so much better that it should only come in black.

Yup, pretty much the same thoughts I had when I saw one. "Someone with working eyes actually bought that thing!?!"

We have one sitting out front of our office, as a company car for when ze Germans come into town.

I'm still convinced it's pooping out a 7th gen Accord.

Yes I came here to say exactly this. The different colored body panels do not help.

I was out in the San Francisco area last week and they were everywhere. Seriously, I saw like 30 in 4 days after only seeing one ever back here in VA. Yeah they're ugly.

However, I also saw a real life i-MiEV. Now that is the ugliest car on the road.

You're right. They do look better in black.

It's really hit or miss with the colour choices. Black mos def is the way to go.

And remember! The Prius became a cultural item while the Civic Hybrid was only an also ran. They have to look a little different to show the world that the owner is a supreme environmentally conscious being or something. BMW did they homework on that one.

Hah, I just posted that very same picture. In black they really can be sinister looking. Great minds think alike!

I really like the looks. In fact, come to think of it the BMW i cars are pretty much the only new cars on the market I actually like the looks of.

Look, it's an angry little panda coming to get you...

It's hard work to make an old Toyota look like a desirable car.

I'm afraid I don't see any similarity. But then I don't consider that an old 'Yota, either...

If you looked like that, you'd wear a mask too!
