There are expection though. Take the 1LE ZL1. Those canards and wing look awful, but they get a pass because the are seen on real race cars and actually have a measurable advantage. These cars are also purchased more by people will use them as intended instead of communting to work and out to diner as the basic SS is mainly. Most people buying an SS wanting a good looking car with some performance.
I’m not seeing that there is a problem with either.
