It's hard to tell when they're all the same color.

Here in Canada they get vinyl wrapped pretty quick to help protect from the salt.

As such they are pretty identifiable. There's about 3 in my neighborhood I see from time to time.

I actually thought they were interesting looking when they first pitched them. Would never buy one now though for all obvious reasons.

I have a friend who wants to get one just so he can wrap it in a badly-aliased texture like the PS1 would have, just to riff on how much it looks like someone was scrimping for polygons when they designed it.

The best color I've seen so far has been gloss black because it kinda hides the shape.

or the drivers hide behind some kind of tint, or sit enough you cant see thier faces.
