Hate to break it to you, but nostalgia will probably make them cool. Nostalgia is the rosiest of tints.

People are finding them cool now. Useless, overpriced pieces of junk used as trophies to a rich mans poor ego.... but distinctive enough that it might change future car designs.

Look at what the USPS bought with their new fleet of postal trucks.

Ugh you're probably right, it's going to be our generation's DMC DeLorean. The vehicle itself will age poorly, but slap it in a BTTF reboot in five years and it'll fit right in

The Aztec was fucking dope. HUD, tent, great interior lighting… loved it.

I will be so disappointed when this happens.
