Fucking finally.

Now make cars look like cars again. Last 30 years has been a parade of Jellybeans and Electric Shavers.

What I care more about is making cars... cars. Visit a dealership in the US and it's 98% SUV/Truck and 2% sedans.

I just want cheap economy shitboxes back. User serviceable ones. Without an extra half ton of plastic and unnecessary electronics. Bring back wind up windows and normal radios. Vinyl seats. Hell, bench seats. Wind up windows.

The lowest tech car I could find was the Mitsubishi Mirage G4, and they told me it's being discontinued this year! I think that leaves the Nissan Versa as the only subcompact entry-level vehicle on the market.
