Mine’s an ugly old bit$h. She’s not much to look at, but get you there without having to empty out the wallet.

The facial features of this car conveys an effeminate nature, a willingness to be pushed around, a tendancy to be referred to in such terms as "wimp" and "pussy", and to speak in a high-pitched voice - often with a slight lisp.

Can’t psych and anthro students do this kind of research for free?

[WoofDog123]

this is pretty much common sense in terms of what our brains tend to project on car front ends. for the most part headlights have locations that are similar to eyes, so the rest is probably normal anthropomorphic extrapolation. Once in a while, a car in the rear-view mirror causes such a response in my brain.

I cannot recall models now, but there are some vehicles from teh 40s/50’s with just beautiful bizarre/complex front grillwork that has always struck me as just bizarre.

Fabuloush!

No joke there. I had a car like that, if I pissed it off (sharp maneuvers, unkind comments) it would stall or not start. While driving, if I insulted the car the radio would turn off. If I apologized the radio came back on. A couple of loving strokes and cooing to the dash board made everything A-OK. It was a Plymouth Fury. A very weird car.

I've always liked ‘58 fords because they looked like a ‘57's homely cousin who just wanted to make friends.

'58 Chevys looked like a '57's maiden aunt - the one who makes fruit cake every Christmas.

"twas said that cars reflect their owners looks...or something like that. Now "cars have a personality"....

Please

That is about as factual as when, in the 50's, the rumour went out that the Edsel was designed to have a front end that "looked like the female genitalia" which would somehow cause men to buy them. Now decorum prohibits me from posting the latter so you can judge for yourself, but, come on, "Cars have a personality?"

I just don't know.

Although, I once had a 1957 that I SWEAR ran much better after I washed and waxed it. Really!!

Intelligent design.....

[Arthur McGowan]

All anyone had to do was look at the front end of an Edsel.

“An Oldsmobile sucking a lemon.”

Hmm.

I can't figure out what mine is.

Mischievous smirk?
