I'm sure they can change the looks. It would affect the aerodynamics though. If you'll notice it's a tear drop shape. A tear drop shape is as aerodynamic as it gets.
Ugh... faggy looking. LOL
Never catch me in that thing. :D
Hey, the 1959 Chev had tear drop shaped tail lights!! Does that count? Don't worry Tom, the Vette is fairly aerodynamic too, it's just that big engine that gets in the fuel economy's way! Does it always smoke like that? I think you need new valve seals!!!(o: JK for those who didn't know!
LOL No... doesn't count.
My Vette reports 22mpg city and last year I went to Cincinatti it reported 29.9 mpg on the way down and 28 on the way home. I'm not going to complain. :D
No kidding?! Wow, what the heck am I driving an econo box for. I use to get nearly 30 mpg on the highway out of my old 2000 dime. Those vette engines make pretty good use of the fuel they consume don't they?!
No kidding... it's the problem I have with 'lead foot'. Hurts mileage. :D
Well, if you did buy a car like the tear drop one, you could easily afford a mask so nobody knew it was you driving it! Get an Al Gore mask..."Oh wait, he is a bigger environmental whore than any of us with his private air crafts and limos, F'n A--Hole! Can you tell I'm oppinionated?!
No it's not, the tail isn't long enough. However it brings to mind an idea for an alternative propulsion system! See, make a car like that with a really long articulating tail. Make it flap and there you go!
