Normal cars designed by classic coachbuilders like Zagato, Pininfarina, or Touring.

Sadly this does not always work out as hoped:

The Hyundai Matrix, designed by Pininfarina

I think we will all live to see the rebirth of coachbuilding, well, except for the Mustang drivers leaving Cars and Coffee. They won’t live to see labor day.

Anyway, this is one of the over-looked promises of electric cars, especially with designs like Tesla’s “skateboard chassis.” Once the drivetrains become commodities, it will mean coachbuilders should be able to license different chassis like they did in the old days before unibody.

We talked about this exact scenario a while back on our podcast with Jason Torchinsky: http://media.blubrry.com/teamclearcoat/…

That’s just... repulsive.

I don’t know why Pininfarina wasted all their time designing sexy Italian roadsters when they could have been making ugly Japanese wagons.

They could never do better than this anyway. *Vomits*

The sexy Italian Roadster was a cheap everyman’s car. The wagon looks better than you’d think.
