Some us look first at a car for its utility.
I want it comfortable, I want to be able to get in and out and not have to do a contortionist skit, and I don’t want the neighbor’s dog to be able to tear the front bumper off as happened to a police car.
Having to pay a garage $200 to replace a battery makes a car not so good looking to me despite all the flashy plastic and fake chrome.
The car lover, which you are not, has very little to chose from. The car prol, like you, has so many ugly appliance type vehicles to choose from. Not fair.
Utility is my number one concern as well. I’m a bicyclist, so hauling bicycles around is job 1. I need a 2” receiver for my bike rack, and the ability to just throw a single bike in the back without the rack is a plus. My Explorer is up to the task, but it’s not pretty. My idea of a good looking car would be something like the latest Chevy Malibu.
