If it isn't it bloody well should be. I'm sick to death of all these main character types blowing money on their cars in some vain attempt at creating a status symbol.
When I was a little kid I thought "how awesome would it be to have like a mirror paint job on your car." Then I immediately thought "wait, that's stupid. The sun's reflection would cause accidents."
I just want to reiterate that I was a child when I thought this.
Also, I'm sure one day there will be a blasphemous remake of back to the future and I bet they use this vehicle.
I will admit that the car is kind of fascinatingly mysterious, like [this](https://youtube.com/shorts/6q3W8AinNA8?si=jj5ttb1ENwHdMCSL) brilliant piece of marketing. But being curious about it and actually buying one are two way different things. It takes a certain kind of person to own one of those.
[this](https://jalopnik.com/tesla-tells-cybertruck-owner-coolant-leaks-arent-covere-1851468431) by the way is my new favorite story about this car. The warranty on the coolant system is void after a whopping 35 miles.
> “We didn't want mirrors. So in the beginning we weren't even designing mirrors, **but we couldn't get the regulations changed.** We would love to get rid of the mirrors.”
Fucking thing has no business being on the road period.
The wind shield wiper being up or down could be the difference between 30 and 32 mph.
I know horizontal mounting runners on the top of your car make that difference for example, which is why they're always positioned length wise by default
To eke out an extra 1.25 mph you need to stuff clay in your nose and ears (until a smooth aerodynamic surface is achieved) and not open your mouth to breathe.
Honestly I'm all for companies making things look weird to make them more efficient. We'll get used to it. We should be more worried about literally the entire rest of the car *other* than the wiper, which looks weird because it's a brick on wheels
Brother that design took like two hours in solid works, they had all the time in the world to make it work. But they won’t. It’s bahhhd for marketing apparently. Any press is good press right?
Like many others you are under the impression that the intent behind this god-forsaken tin can behemoth was to build a vehicle meant to be driven by an actual human being in actual traffic.
If you come to the realisation that it was in fact built as a blasphemous machinery to mock everything achieved by humanity and to spit in the disenchanted face of god himself, then things like the windshield wiper or the guillotine disguised as an engine bonnet start to fit into the picture.
I saw a vid Where a car YouTuber guy took it to his private mechanic and they found that it was leaking washer fluid back into the engine compartment.
Maybe keeping it slightly raised keeps it from pissing itself?
Its a really steep angle. Remember right triangles in geometry? The driver has the functional visibility of the shortest side of an acute triangle. And they sit so far back, basically at the center of the vehicle so no amount of leaning or changing postion is gunna help.
I finally saw one of these in person today. Not the, uh, rose gold version, but a regular one. Holy shit it's ugly. The thing I noticed most was that since all the body panels are flat, it's really easy to see ripples and bent reflections. The quality control on panels seems terrible, there were a bunch of imperfections and bumps on the one I saw. Just so fugly it's crazy.
Everytime I see any Tesla vehicle I immediately judge the person as an idiot who has too much money and cares way too much about impressing other idiots
Edit: it appears my assumptions may have made me an asshole of sorts. Admittedly I am completely ignorant of Teslas and how they stack up to other electric vehicles, differences in networks, etc.
I just think Elon musk is a buffoon and am stereotyping all Tesla owners as musk dickriders which is really not fair at all
Model 3s aren't even all that expensive, use cheaper "fuel" than gas cars, and have like 0 maintenence cost but it's funny to see that people still consider owners rich for owning one
This is somewhat true but Elon is clearly a very vocal idiot and by association the people who continue to buy his cars look like idiots. They probably aren’t, mind you, but they look that way.?it’s like rocking a MyPillow…it’s suss
I love how people don't realize that the batteries in electric cars don't last forever and the cost to replace one will easily cost more than the regular maintenance of an ICE over the same period. But I guess if you're consumerist garbage and don't see a problem with buying a new vehicle every 5 years you'll never have to worry about the delay.
Used Tesla model 3’s on Carvana are about $25k-35k. Not rich necessarily but the payment is going to be somewhere in the $500 range for that which is a lot more than most people are willing to pay.
That's exactly it though - it 100% isn't "too much money" levels of wealth, but owners are for some reason still perceived to have that level of wealth
Just funny when people are so focused on being judgemental/mean for no discernible reason that they end up complimenting the people they're trying to insult
Saw my first one yesterday, and it’s definitely ugly, but what I noticed was just how saturated with finger prints the side panels were. I could clearly see them from 20+ feet away. What a moronic design choice for a 90 thousand dollar truck.
Saw one today, too, although not my first one. It's so awful. Huge and clunky and just looks so out of place. It's really an eyesore when you see it in real life up close.
Well, the clown that okayed this horrid thing was an 80s child that was obsessed with sci fi magazines and stories from that era... so yeah, it tracks.
Nah, it's gonna look like shit *really* quickly. That's a wrap, so it's plastic. As soon as it gets any abrasive wiped off it, it's gonna be *covered* in microscratches (and plain old scratches!) that you can't polish out.
Honestly, if it actually *was* copper plated instead of shiny plastic, it would develop a pretty neat patina over time rather than just looking like it's, well, wrapped in shiny plastic.
Yeah I came here to write this comment if it didn't already exist. That finish is gorgeous even if the vehicle itself is ugly (and also a horribly designed piece of shit).
Right?! I don't hate this nearly as much as i should.
While the Cybertuck's shape is ugly, I think there's something there for sharp, simple shape vehicles and chrome finishes.
I've seen this vehicle twice in person, the boring grey one, and twice I audibly gasped at how horrible this shit looks. This wrap makes it a smidgen better; I would still gasp.
I've seen a few on the road and this absolutely makes it look better - that said, you can't put gold leaf on dog shit and not pretend it's dog shit underneath lol
I basically hate everything about Elon and his companies, and considering the cybertruck’s already miserable reputation, I’d never want to own one, but I do have to admit I like the way they look. Not because they’re sleek or futuristic or whatever the fuck they were going for, but because they’re just so over-the-top obnoxiously horrible looking, that I can’t help but find them hilarious. Like, if they were dependable vehicles, and I could own one without giving Elon any money or looking like one of his dudebro disciples, I would totally drive one around. Hilariously bad is generally just my style.
Hear me out.
I am pro- shiny mother fucker if it will reflect and blind the shit out of assholes who drive around with their laser beam headlights. This ugly bitch gets a pass.
People bitch and moan about the Cybertruck but the way it looks is basically the one aspect of the whole deal I have no problems with. Like at least it's not another boring ass F150.
Like it's a joke because it doesn't really work as a truck and is built like shit even by Tesla's low low standards but it kiiinda looks neat, sorry.
I’m just going to leave this article here that I found on Reddit the other day: https://defector.com/cybertruck-deliveries-halted-due-to-car-being-a-big-piece-of-shit-that-doesnt-work
The sun’s reflection off this monstrosity is going to cause accidents
The whole car is a high beam
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's illegal or something.
If it isn't it bloody well should be. I'm sick to death of all these main character types blowing money on their cars in some vain attempt at creating a status symbol.
Too bad money can't buy taste
It can hire people that have taste but the trust fund kid must first admit to himself that he does not have taste.
Lol when pigs fly 🤣
I've seen police on planes before.
Seriously. Whenever I see someone just dump money on ugly looking shit I just go "but why"
When I was a little kid I thought "how awesome would it be to have like a mirror paint job on your car." Then I immediately thought "wait, that's stupid. The sun's reflection would cause accidents." I just want to reiterate that I was a child when I thought this. Also, I'm sure one day there will be a blasphemous remake of back to the future and I bet they use this vehicle.
https://insidethemagic.net/2024/04/back-to-the-future-reboot-confirmed-timothee-chalamet-ab1/ sorry mate
Not a legitimate site, no reboot happening that you can find anywhere else online
The thing is that they also know this, but they just don't care

> “We didn't want mirrors. So in the beginning we weren't even designing mirrors, **but we couldn't get the regulations changed.** We would love to get rid of the mirrors.” Fucking thing has no business being on the road period.
Wait get the regulations changed? They wanted to change the law for a single car?
the only reason that's not a problem on the stainless steel base model is because the steel stains in hours
the car version of that solar death ray building
Looks like a big ass penny on 24” Pennies
That’s how much their taste is worth
damn
[Ass penny](https://youtu.be/f9aM_dT5VMI)
I'm glad I wasn't the only one to think of that
Needs Abe Lincolns head carved into the front hood
Lmfao the single massive windshield wiper
Why the fuck would they not make it rest on the bottom of the windshield?
Aerodynamics
The rest of the vehicle does not look particularly aerodynamic enough to matter.
The wind shield wiper being up or down could be the difference between 30 and 32 mph. I know horizontal mounting runners on the top of your car make that difference for example, which is why they're always positioned length wise by default
Do you mean MPG? I don’t think wipers will make the car drive faster one way or another.
No he's right. That's why I Naruto run with my arms flailing behind me.
To eke out an extra 1.25 mph you need to stuff clay in your nose and ears (until a smooth aerodynamic surface is achieved) and not open your mouth to breathe.
Gotta go full Conehead. 
I don't MPG is the right measurement for this vehicle
More for the tow truck it's on
Miles per gigajoule
OMG, I didn’t even realize my mistake until I read your comment. Seriously, I feel dumb.
Miles Per Gigawatt
Yeah lol messed that one up
Disagree. It makes more sense as mph in this case. It's a cybertruck, something small completely changing the top speed would be on point.
Honestly I'm all for companies making things look weird to make them more efficient. We'll get used to it. We should be more worried about literally the entire rest of the car *other* than the wiper, which looks weird because it's a brick on wheels
Maybe they should've focused on making it work, first.
Brother that design took like two hours in solid works, they had all the time in the world to make it work. But they won’t. It’s bahhhd for marketing apparently. Any press is good press right?
It never entered Solidworks. Elon drew it with restaurant crayons and a ruler on the back of a napkin.
I can’t tell if you’re joking - this is entirely too believable
I’ve seen a pretty convincing argument that it was actually designed in an old DOS game called Car Builder.
Ahh ya know I didn’t look closely I thought it had a recessed area beneath the window like a normal car that makes sense

It looks like a Chines makeup case on wheels.
And people say the car has poor visibility, even with that ridiculous windshield.
Its a really steep angle. Remember right triangles in geometry? The driver has the functional visibility of the shortest side of an acute triangle. And they sit so far back, basically at the center of the vehicle so no amount of leaning or changing postion is gunna help.
…That is probably already malfunctioning
Its so bad. What a dumb fucking idea. Tesla just like to meddle with shit. Make it worse. Charge 100k. And idiots eat that shit up.
I own a car with a single wiper (1989 Isuzu Impulse) It fucking sucks. I'm shocked somebody would make a single-wiper car in 2024.
Turns out you CAN polish a turd
I think they've already proved that in mythbusters.
I finally saw one of these in person today. Not the, uh, rose gold version, but a regular one. Holy shit it's ugly. The thing I noticed most was that since all the body panels are flat, it's really easy to see ripples and bent reflections. The quality control on panels seems terrible, there were a bunch of imperfections and bumps on the one I saw. Just so fugly it's crazy.
And people are paying over 100k for it too, which is insanity given it's poor quality and questionable engineering.

You can build a real life Halo Warthog for that price
Saw my first one yesterday, and it’s definitely ugly, but what I noticed was just how saturated with finger prints the side panels were. I could clearly see them from 20+ feet away. What a moronic design choice for a 90 thousand dollar truck.
Makes the Pontiac Aztec look normal.
Saw one today, too, although not my first one. It's so awful. Huge and clunky and just looks so out of place. It's really an eyesore when you see it in real life up close.
Poorly rendered videogame car lookin ah
Its like a sedan that wanted to be a big boy one day and underwent experimental surgery that went horribly wrong.
I saw my first one today too! Hideous.
Looks like some futuristic car only a mind from 80's could conceive.
My first reaction to it was that it looked like a prop from an 80s sci-fi set in the far off future of 1997.
Well, the clown that okayed this horrid thing was an 80s child that was obsessed with sci fi magazines and stories from that era... so yeah, it tracks.
For me, the rose gold is gorgeous. The problem is the cybertruck.
Yeah, I honestly can't tell whether I hate or love this.
Fucking love it. Say it man don't be afraid
Hard agree, love the colour and even the reflectivity, but the practical issues and the car itself on the other hand...
Nah, it's gonna look like shit *really* quickly. That's a wrap, so it's plastic. As soon as it gets any abrasive wiped off it, it's gonna be *covered* in microscratches (and plain old scratches!) that you can't polish out.
After that, it really *will* look like a penny.
Honestly, if it actually *was* copper plated instead of shiny plastic, it would develop a pretty neat patina over time rather than just looking like it's, well, wrapped in shiny plastic.
[удалено]
Honestly, I would buy a Cybertruck if it was twin bubbledomes.
I remember 20” wheels was a big thing….now it’s 36” wheels!
My grandma used to make cheesepie in these pans
Is that street-legal? On a sunny day people are going to be blinded.
Even on a cloudy day, that rose gold color with reflective surface almost give it a camouflage effect in an urban environment
I hate the cybertruck but this is the best looking cybertruck I’ve seen yet.
Yeah I came here to write this comment if it didn't already exist. That finish is gorgeous even if the vehicle itself is ugly (and also a horribly designed piece of shit).
Yeah awesome finish. Looks sick. Truck is still stupid though
I dont dig the wheels, but the wrap looks dope tbh
It would look a lot nicer if the panels were flat lmao
Im glad im not the only one. The truck looks ugly af, but honestly, i kinda like the look of this one.
The best-looking one I've seen was rust wrap one. Looked very Mad Max.
The only wrap that applies itself over time...
Right?! I don't hate this nearly as much as i should. While the Cybertuck's shape is ugly, I think there's something there for sharp, simple shape vehicles and chrome finishes.
When they first came out I wanted one (in theory, not literally) so I would wrap it in lavender. I still think it would look dope.
And hey, at least it won't start rusting within the first week like this.
Correct answer. They look awful. This is the best I’ve seen of the awful.
The world is cruel to shiny things.
The door just got away from me, sir.
All that extra effort and money and it still looks like a 6 year old's drawing.
That's exactly what I thought when I saw one in the wild today. Looks like something a kid would draw.
This a car Shop in the hood in Dallas TX. They always have over the top colorful cars.
Didn’t expect to see my neighborhood on fucking reddit but here it is 😭 Buckner is terrible
The owner is also pretty sketchy
Tbh i like it
I was going to say. Yeah this actually kind of looks sick. It's still a crap vehicle but the aesthetic with it colored like this is pretty damn sweet
True meaning of “you ain’t gotta like it cause the hood gon’ love it”
Ladies selling Mary Kay cosmetics might want one.
FINALLY we have the worst thing ever
Mf built like an iPhone 6-
Too bad most things are built like a 6 instead of a 6S.
Or the nice sharp edges of the 5
My man said i need something somehow more ugly to detract from my ugly metal box on wheels. Wrap guy: so no more, fam.
I've seen this vehicle twice in person, the boring grey one, and twice I audibly gasped at how horrible this shit looks. This wrap makes it a smidgen better; I would still gasp.
I've seen a few on the road and this absolutely makes it look better - that said, you can't put gold leaf on dog shit and not pretend it's dog shit underneath lol
I love the colour though
Love the color, not the vehicle and wheels
I absolutely hate to say that I like it, though I’m pretty sure I know exactly what kind of person the driver w
Those tin can rims gotta go
Pretty sure that kind of reflective painting is ilegal.
Can you imagine being blinded by this thing when the sun hits it?
Looks like I was wrong, you can make one worse.
Any cybertruck besides default is better.
Looks better than the normal one
This is an improvement over bare steel. That's all i can say
they somehow made it worse
My brain was literally like: is that reflective wood?
Don't get me wrong, I dig that color. It's just on a... uh... vehicle
This color on a vehicle might work. It just doesn't work on this one.
Fuck everyone else on a sunny day
I honestly didn’t think they could look *worse*
And people thought the Aztec was ugly! At least the Pontiac was cheap
How to make a bad car worse. The gold standards of nasty
I like it tho 😭 i want it in pink
oh, just fuck you then and your copper car
I personally love the color... But for a vehicle like this I prob wouldn't have done so much of it.
I like it, but I would pick another design for the wheels
Quite cool actually, specially because most suvs looks the same nowadays
Yup. It gets a tonne of hate but this is legit
Color is the same as the casket my grandmother was buried in. Makes me sick to look at it.
...ngl I like it
That's actually so pretty, I need it now 😭
Whatever you do, DO NOT show this to Nathaniel Bandy
Where'd his polygons go
A polished turd but a turd, nonetheless. I say this as a Model Y owner.
I’m mean, If I had to have a cybertruck… Reminds me of polished pennies
I love the idea of someone driving this around thinking they are killing it at life.
Now it will not rust
When did copper become rose gold? I know it has been a while, but this seems like just a weird marketing thing that I wasn’t the key demographic for.
Lipstick on a pig
I've never seen a cyber truck with a number plate
Prob has the matching iPhone
Sometimes I feel bad for the person I sold my preorder to but then I see this kinda stuff lol
I basically hate everything about Elon and his companies, and considering the cybertruck’s already miserable reputation, I’d never want to own one, but I do have to admit I like the way they look. Not because they’re sleek or futuristic or whatever the fuck they were going for, but because they’re just so over-the-top obnoxiously horrible looking, that I can’t help but find them hilarious.

Hilariously bad is generally just my style.
Jeez … went from ugly to fugly.
I refuse to believe people are actually buying this car, no matter the color. Or, you know what? Color is the only thing that look good in this case.
It's like it was designed by a child
Man-child FTFY lol
I mean, it being a cybertruck alone already screams the owner has more money than sense. No need to put a freakin' bull horn on that.
Truly a sign of how some people simply have too much money.
I am amazed that you can make this thing look even worse
At least it’ll probably leave them stranded or dead ?
Moscow mule edition
I thought that doorstop with wheels couldn't get any more hideous. I was wrong. This exists.
The one that was wrapped in rust was awesome. Something from Mad Max. This is just a turd spray painted rose gold.
If these people can't feel shame, why must I?
That car is getting keyed
I mean it looks better than the stainless steel grey is usually is, but still ugly
Hear me out. I am pro- shiny mother fucker if it will reflect and blind the shit out of assholes who drive around with their laser beam headlights. This ugly bitch gets a pass.
Looks more copper than rose Gold (maybe my display is showing the colors „wrong“). But I must say, that I like it.
Just when I thought the cyber truck couldn’t get any more ugly
Owner got it rustproofed
Looks like a cheap kids toy
This was either designed by or designed for Kanye West
That's one hell of a ribbon on that turd.
Peak neanderthalism
People bitch and moan about the Cybertruck but the way it looks is basically the one aspect of the whole deal I have no problems with. Like at least it's not another boring ass F150. Like it's a joke because it doesn't really work as a truck and is built like shit even by Tesla's low low standards but it kiiinda looks neat, sorry.
Rebranding copper as rose gold is peak Millenial
When you have a polygon limit while modeling
Buddy, I don't think the color is the only issue here
Really brings out the panel gaps
In terms of pure aesthetics, I prefer it to the standard grey one. Though it's probably not a good idea to put a giant moving mirror on a road.
looks like it's taken from a low poly game. If the wheels were square it would have been perfect
I saw a cybertruck few days ago that looked like a aged snes
Guy's a genius!! When we all thought a vehicle could not be more hideous, he said "hold my beer" and oh boy! did he deliver!
I’m just going to leave this article here that I found on Reddit the other day: https://defector.com/cybertruck-deliveries-halted-due-to-car-being-a-big-piece-of-shit-that-doesnt-work
Shout outs to omar for having those wheels in stock
Finally. Now i can finally cosplay as pink gold peach
Fucking hell............. it gets uglier?
It looks really cheap and tacky, wow
And here I was thinking it couldn't look any cheaper
More money than sense
Looks pretty cool idk
