They should have gotten rid of the huge ass end and worked it into the flow of the car a little more....

And who said circular tail lights are on their way out?

Save for a few cars like the Ferrari you posted, they are. Circles are hard to integrate into a car's design. Even that Ferrari's taillight just looks sort of mounted on as an afterthought.

I think they're pretty fitting with the way the humps are behind the headrests, although I agree.. just like the Corvette, they should have been more thought out and better designed.

Well if you believe you can do better, please feel free to pick up a pencil and do so.

I don't get paid thousands to design cars, so no thanks... If you want to send me a check I'll design more... as I have done before.

No I want a check with your name on it

Now that I'm looking though, I may apply for a couple, starting to look for jobs with a year and a half left of school, wouldn't be a bad idea to get my name out there a bit earlier.

Holy shit. Start applying now. You're going to need the lead time.

I graduate in less than 4 months and what I was pretty sure was a done deal ended up falling through.

Yeah. Spent the entire summer on the university's dairy farm.

Most employers associate farm work with hard working, so it's actually been pretty beneficial having that on my resume.

hmmm, I haven't done any internships yet, hoping to get one for this summer.

I go to MSOE, I've worked in a Machine Shop (shows hard work?).. idk lol I have plenty of references though I think so I should be good hopefully.
