    and the reason all cars look the same today is because they've all been moving closer and closer to the most aerodynamic shape

    What I don't understand is why older cars looked so good and then 80's and 90's cars looked so terrible...

    The difference between the curvy cars from the 40s and those of today: Even the curvy cars from those days looked really nice. Modern cars look like someone wrote a random shape generator and fed that into a manufacturing line.
