Remember a decade ago when every car had to have European-style, Altezza'd amber-less turn signals? Though vestiges remain, we've thankfully moved on. But what current automotive trend will be passé in another decade?
We hope, we seriously hope, the concept that will be passé in a decade will be the stupid narrow greenhouse, chopped-roof look. They're fine on concept cars much in the same way impossibly shaved tires and LED-everything are fine on concept cars and yet they're what end up in the final cars (we're really willing to try LED-everything). The problem is manufacturers have been persuaded by researchers to believe that the higher the belt-line the more secure people will feel and the easier it will be to sell a car. The reality is it's incredibly dangerous. If you haven't had the pleasure of driving a new Camaro or GT-R you haven't had the pleasure of almost getting a colo-rectal exam by a dude in an F-250. It's unnatural, uncomfortable, and no longer really stylish since you can get the same thing on a Kia Soul.
What about you? What are we going to look back on and scoff at soon?
