Or the Beetle looks like the Airflow -- not unreasonable, since they were designed around the same time.
I actually prefer the hunched-up-cockroach styling of late-prewar cars over the stateliness of the twenties, the tubbiness of the early prewar models, or the fins-and-rockets look of the late fifties. They might look lumpy or dowdy to some people, but then, so do I.
I'm not a big car person (as in, don't even have a license) but from an aesthetic perspective I agree - 30s cars have the best look. I like tubby, rounded cars overall - the Saab 96 is about as late as appeals to me. Modern cars look so anonymous - I can't even tell most of them apart.
