    It reminds me of a purebred German Shephard with spine/hip problems. Looks kinda like its back is broken, the way the car is sinched up in the middle along with the grill at the front drooping down rather than forward.

    It's definitely doing something new for Ferrari, but it's uncomfortable to the eye overall. I do really like the light bar at the back though.

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Have we talked about the new MB SL? I like the new direction and the exterior. But not digging that giant touchpad in the center of the console. Really ugly. They should have done what they did with the new E class

    How about some HI (Human Intelligence) renderings?

    While having my wife's car serviced at the dealer today, one of the salesmen mentioned that the 2024 Camry will be carryover while the 2025 will be a clean sheet. Thought it would be fun to post some renderings posted around the internet of what some Humans think the new Camry will look like.

    Of course, nobody really knows at this point.

    Like with many Ferrari's it looks better in person than in photos. The overall shape is pretty well balanced. Some of the graphics (the surface breaks, scoops, and slots) don't match up but it's cool for a one off. I hope production Ferrari's incorporate the light bars and I suppose in the future there will be more examples of movable aero on production cars, like seen on this car. It's pretty wild.

    In order-
    Toyota
    Mazda
    Nissan

    Last one is mostly Ford but agree it is the most MidJourneyish

    Defintely has potential; so much so that thhe Weismann bros. have been building a coupe much like it since 1990.
    It was decidedly retro even then...
