New one is better

[renderingerror_473]

In what way? This atmosphere and soul takes over.

In terms of looks, reliability, safety, comfort and fuel economy.

In my opinion it’s fine but not the best. It looks like an average 1997 Suzuki Jimny.

I think fake beauty is evil. When a car isn’t trying to look sporty and evil, like the new Daihatsu, but actually functions and helps the car be evil, that’s beautiful. But fake air intakes, a look that doesn’t reflect character—that’s ridiculous. It’s like picking up a woman with a fake face on the street and then seeing her real face.

Bruuuuuh

Well, go and figure out who this car is for, what kind of soul it has and what its beauty is. In other respects it is indeed better, but the balance is clearly not in favor of the new version.

And all this is to say that I don’t agree that the new car is better. Well, if you’re spiritually sound, you’ll agree now too. To me, the new one is like a cheap Chinese car, nothing more. I wouldn’t call it crap, but this “miracle” makes me gag.
