If you design a car to have wheel skirts and leave them off, it looks funny.
If you design a car to have open wheel wells and later add skirts, it looks funny.
(No offense to Sulfuric- I'd post the Probe if the concepts didn't have covered wheels)
So we come to a crossroads: does the company want to go out on a limb and build a car with skirts that people may or may not like? Or do they just build another "safe" car that people are more likely to buy?
I'd like skirts to come back, and to have more EV1's and Insights, but in this economy I don't think companies are ready to take that risk.
