I would never buy one, but I do look forward to seeing them on the road. They look so cool.

See I think they look idiotic. Different for sure but not cool at all.

I think it depends entirely on whether you grew up watching Back to the Future and Total Recall or not.

honestly people are just looking for things to complain about. When the Model S came out, they had a huge fake grille because everyone complained that it looked weird without it. Now it looks stupid with it and the new front end with the tiny slit looks great. People complained that the model 3 looked weird without any grille at all, now it's the most boring car on the road. There were people saying Rivian would fail purely on looks because those headlights are so weird. Turns out absolutely nobody cares in reality.

I watched both of those, and this thing is laughable. The best thing it will do is immediately identify the operator as a clown.
