Look at the back of this thing!! the 1959 Chevrolet Impala 2 door coupe was an amazing car, but it only lasted 2 years. The next generation wasn’t as cool, as upper management wanted a more conservative look. One thing they changed was the rear lights, thinking the ’59 was too bold and futuristic! This was truly the golden age of the American auto industry. Think of the ’59 Corvette, ’59 Bel Air, ’56 Thunderbird, all beautiful pieces of art. Even the Europeans were coming out with amazing cars: 1958 Lotus Elite, MB 300SL, Porsche 550 RS Spyder. I wish car manufacturers had the same sense of aesthetics and inspiration and boldness that they expressed back in the 50’s and 60’s. More 2 doors, more curves, and more convertibles please!! Stop making SUV’s and cross vehicles!!
