I can't get over how fucking ugly it is...

It's such an uninspired, amateurish, unfinished, unbalanced, boring design aesthetic. It's like an amateur designer did it or it was created as a prank. Or like a drug addled nutcase billionaire scribbled it on a napkin and ordered it made.

I actually unironically like it and wish it was made better/cheaper...

No shade to you or anything. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that.

Maybe I like it because it looks like that combat vehicle from aliens (i tried to upload a pic but it didnt work on mobile)

Ah right. M577 Armored Personnel Carrier!

With the orange reflection on the wheel of the one in the article photo it gave me Halo warthog vibes. I guess if you were playing the game on the lowest graphics settings lol

i mean, have you seen the other Tesla vehicles? They look exactly like how 7 year olds draw cars.

I'll have you know the Delorean DMC was a timeless piece of art.

Apples and oranges. The only similarity between the DeLorean and the Cybertruck is the stainless steel body, and nobody minds that. What people hate about the Cybertruck is the shape, and in that respect the DeLorean is just a pretty standard '80s wedge-shaped sports car.
