No argument from me on those points. We recently replaced our "family sedan", and getting what we want in a car took both Ford and Chevy off the list before it even got started.

Yeah I get the same vibe from those kinds of designs. Why people want to be inside something that looks like this is beyond me.
When I first saw the FNR Concept, Alien was the first thing that popped into my mind. I find the fact that they spent time and money making this to actually be somewhat depressing.
Give us something beautiful, elegant, classy... not something out of a horror movie.
