That goes hard AF. Can you imagine Breaking Bad if instead of a SRT8 Mr. White pulled up in this menace?


[deleted]

It does. It’s the first Aztec I’ve seen customized like this.


prancing_moose

Hang on… this .. is an Aztec???


AvatarOfMomus

Yup, you can see the Pontiac logo on the rear hatch.


ghos2626t

Also in the way it says Aztek on the window


AvatarOfMomus

Yeah, but that's harder to read than the Pontiac symbol is to recognize because of the size and angle.


prancing_moose

I can see it now but it does not compute with mental image of an Aztec! It looks actually pretty good?


DarthBrooks69420

It also has exhaust pipes


jetoler

Why tf did the article use an Aztec 😭


Key_Percentage_2551

Pontiac Aztec...yesss!!


ChiggaOG

Doesn’t anything in full black gloss paint,even if it was the worst designed vehicle, with wide-body fenders make it go hard?


SenseWinter

This LS1 was the first (best?) And very popular when it came out https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/ultimate-aztec-248631/


txmail

Damn. That could have saved Pontiac lol.


mini4x

SAdly a fake, it's a render


AtmanRising

Yep!


B0OG

I’d love to see Jesse pull up to Walt in this and see Walt envious.


DrXyron

The version where Walter became an addict of his own product?


ChattanoogaMocsFan

Are those 2nd gen Trans Am wheels on an aztek?


AtmanRising

Looks like it, right?


e136

Fucking fire


tuckermans

Rims definitely fuck. Want to put them on my Lexus.


69420over

They aren’t but designed to look similar kind of…don’t think you could get such wide meats on stock gm shit from that era. I’ll say Whoever designed them tho took the bad part of the 80s/90s out and left the good in. On second glance this has to be AI right? Look at the tread on that front right even if they were custom nobody’s cutting tires like that right? Doesn’t seem physically possible with that low of a profile


deformo

Commonly called ‘snowflakes’.


GTAdriver1988

The snowflake, honeycomb, and mesh wheels are such nice wheels. I used to have an 88 GTA and I kept a set of the gold mesh wheels for it, I need to figure out what to do with them.


jminer1

Def an Aztek


Phenom-1

Bandit Edition. Duh


Pogokat

This actually looks …. Good


__dying__

Honestly best looking Aztec I ever saw


withoutapaddle

Well, technically you still haven't seen it, because that's not real. Looks like a render or photo mode from Gran Turismo or something.


SenseWinter

It's also not real. This V8 Aztec is, however https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/ultimate-aztec-248631/


OhiobornCAraised

Doesn’t need the basket handle on the roof or the rear spoiler, but it does look good.


Pogokat

Agree about the roof, I don’t mind the spoiler- the wide body looks nice.


OhiobornCAraised

To me, it’s giving off Subaru Impreza vibes. I’d like to see what it looks like from the front.


Iyashii

It's got an ass like an Aztek


Lobster_fest

I disagree actually. I dont like the spoiler too much but it breaks up a weird line. I think the roof rack works.


MourningRIF

It doesn't really... I mean okay it does... But that's because people are suckers for fender flairs, and they don't even know it. Put "normal" fenders on it, and it would look like a box. =P


Orange_Wax

You take away the pieces that look nice and it’ll look bad. Certainly a take.


midwestdrift

Tesla dreams of making a vehicle that looks this good.


blissed_off

And has panel fitment and paint finish that good.


jetoler

Panel fitment? That vocabulary doesn’t exist at Tesla motors.


M_Ptwopointoh

Based on their creations so far, the only thing Tesla dreams of making is vehicles from the set of *Battlestar Galactica*. Why won't anyone make an electric car that just looks like regular car?!


anontruths

I agree I hate the design of all electric cars. Unfortunately they are chasing efficiency so streamlined is all they care about. No need for a front intake/grill immediately makes the car recognizable as electric and I hate the way that looks, now they have a car that looks like a raindrop and from there they have to add atleast some personality so each manufacturer has there own signature headlights and taillights but the bodies are all generally starting to look similar just differences in sizes and slight changes to body lines. I’m talking the likes so BMW Tesla Audi Mercedes all of their cars look like shite nowadays as they continue to transfer to all electric fleets.


DrKpuffy

>Why won't anyone make an electric car that just looks like regular car?! Back when the Prius was first launched, Toyota essentially confirmed (I don't think they did a study, per se), that people wanted their hybrid to look like goofy future cars. I think that ball just kept rolling, and now we have Tesla unironically releasing the Cybertuck thinking it doesn't look stupid


Sonofthestig01

This is a render by Abimelecdesign. He has a lot of awesome alternative history renders of a bunch of different styles and has been picked up by a few custom fab shops to design their one-off custom vehicles. He’s got really cool shit, it’s definitely worth checking out.


AtmanRising

Wow, really? I had no idea. I legit thought it was someone's car.


Sonofthestig01

yeah this dude’s renders are nuts, they’re so detail-focused that it’s hard to notice! I absolutely love all of his designs because they’re so well done and so intricate. I’d absolutely recommend giving him a follow


AtmanRising

Just followed him on IG.


WhiskeyFeathers

I mean if you look close it looks like a video game car, the lighting and reflections are kinda off.


-gizmocaca-

You gotta look close though. Pretty soon we won’t know what’s real vs AI.


WhiskeyFeathers

I mean all I needed was to look at the picture a little closer. Took like 2 seconds.


[deleted]

I would also hope someone isn't applying tire shine to their treads


tbone747

I always thought the Aztek was overhated. It's better-selling sibling the Rendezvous deserved so much more hate.


nomedable

Too early for it's time and it had a funky styling that "people" weren't too fussed about.


DarthBrooks69420

It was made when GM was on some serious bullshit with the exterior plastic cladding.


AlejandroTheFnck

Unironically that thing is **stupendously** sick. The flares and the Trans-Am -esque wheels holy dude man bro son dog *fuck* that’s cool!!!


coconutpete52

Smokey and the Aztek.


Fizzix63

The Bandit would have put that OEM pop up tent to good use! (yes it came with an optional tent)


h1r0ll3r

Looks like a Pontiac Aztec after a trip to Auto Zone.


AtmanRising

A very dressed up Pontiac Aztek


Khakicollective

Trans am inspired wheels


Diamondhands_Rex

Is prom day


MyBllsYrChn

Aztec combined with a VW Corrado.


firemogle

Did the designer just wake up from a 40 year coma?


po_ta_toes_80

Heisenberg Dark Limited


Weary_Cartographer_7

Looks like a Corrado


snoobiez

Aztec SSEI GXP


Lxiflyby

As much as I want to hate this I actually really like it


DeathGrover

I'm one of those weird people who always thought the Aztec looked OK. I didn't see the hullaballoo around it. Now the Honda Crosstour, that's an UGLY car to me.


AtmanRising

The Crosstour is an abomination.


Mr_McShane

Pontiac Fire-Tek? Az-bird? Trans-Tek?


HappySkullsplitter

Bah Gawd


foxgemet

This car goes hard


pm-me-racecars

I see this as somebody feeding an ai a bunch of pictures of a Pontiac Aztec and then asking it to design the Countach as an SUV.


ButtDonaldsHappyMeal

I’m offended by how cool this looks


Drzhivago138

Brings new meaning to the term "breadvan"


handspin

Hoping that the crossover phase morphs into rally cars for all


Elite-Speed

CyberAztecs…that’s apocalyptic. 100% what machines will utilize to conquer humanity.


instagigated

ngl that looks dope


OblivionsPrologue

Man that thing looks good


MaceInThePlace

I’m upset that this is as nice looking as it is.


HLef

I'm not proud that I feel about this the way that I feel about this.


Talkimas

Looks like an inflated Lancia Delta Integrale


eaglevision93

Aztec and the Bandit


Lucky-Glue-5000

CRX and Aztec had a baby. The all new Craztex?


IJustLoveWinning

That.. I... I'm.. Uhm. I kinda like it... A lot.


Spankh0us3

This appears to be a modded Pontiac Aztec. . .


soarraos

I'd drive that before I drove a cyber truck


Both_Wasabi_3606

It's an improvement, frankly.


WhiskeyFeathers

Nice render


kingofhan0

The Pontiac Phoenix.


Rampaging_Orc

Looks like it has a Pontiac badge.


CosmikSpartan

It must be Aztec day. I’d rock this mofo too.


ImperiusPrime

They actually found a way to make the Aztek look good? Amazing.


cannedbeansgalore

That Aztec is cool af


wsdmskr

Conquest TSi vibes - I like it.


TheRealNewOtherJohn

It's an improvement!


captaincanada84

If this was real, it would actually be the best looking car that Tesla has released.


exception-found

What the fuck kinda tires are those


Kytoaster

Pontiac aztec?


people40

The Aztec was ugly, but its real sin was being before its time. It has the same basic shape as most modern crossovers. The styling is terrible, but if came out 15 years later, it would have been just an ugly crossover, rather than considered one of the ugliest vehicles of all time.


AtmanRising

Absolutely.


13dot1then420

This is the second sick Aztec I've seen in the last 30 minutes. Wtf?


Pugilist12

Looks like a real car a normal person with a reasonable level of self respect and self awareness would drive. So it would be a step in the right direction.


Whyisanime

Looking good, they just might make a sale... In as long as the car comes with a million hazzard stickers... 


ilikedatunahere

Damn. If they made them look like this from the factory, people wouldn’t make fun of them nearly as much. That looks smexy.


Numerous-Fly-3791

I was gonna make a joke about it being a wide body Aztec. And sure as shit. It’s not a joke


These-Mud-3053

Man… I gotta pinch myself here. This is super sick!


MrMott98

I’ve seen this rendering they modeled it after the Smokey and the bandit trans am. It’s dope I admit!


ewplayer3

The Pontiac Aztec is the ugliest car ever designed. Tesla: Hold my beer.


AKJangly

That Aztec is going hard as fuck. How much for it?


Zillahi

The fabled widebody Aztec of yore


workinglunch

Nice asss tech right there


TheCanadianShield99

I’d buy that.


technicallyimright

This would be a major improvement.


YerBlues69

Isn’t that an Aztec? 🤨


AtmanRising

It is! But it's supposed to be a render. I always suspected that the Aztek could be made to look decent.

cwtheredsoxfan

Hands down the best looking Aztec on the planet


CocaineSandwiches

The breaking bad mobile


AtmanRising

Better Call Saul had an ugly Suzuki as well.


mini4x

Stunning tell me it at least had a 3800 SC swap, if not a LS...


KknhgnhInepa0cnB11

Looks like a poorly rendered Subaru


Possible-Tangelo9344

Tesla is bringing back the Pontiac Aztec


theflamingsword101

The difference is I actually miss my Pontiac


oakc510

You"ve got to really love the Aztek to customize it to this level. Low key looks good. Let's see the front now.


UnhinderedGoat

Holy fucking shit. Is it? Could it be? A presentable Aztek?


epicbigc13579

This makes me want a sleeper Aztec build


Phenom-1

I'd rock that Aztek. Maybe I'll buy one just to do it up like that. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2020/04/pontiac-aztek-trans-am-rendering-is-unexpectedly-amazing/amp/


Whatsuptodaytomorrow

Aztek !


GuiltyGTR

That’s one bad a$$ Aztec! So cool. 😎


MourningRIF

Those original cyber trucks are going to be such a limited run that they are going to be worth a fortune in 20 years when one of them becomes a time machine in Back to the Future Part 6.


SgtPepe

I dislike Elon as much as the next guy, but show me one image of a part of a Cybertruck that is rusted. Don’t be a sheep dude.


AtmanRising

Someone found a picture of the front! https://gmauthority.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Pontiac-Aztek-Trans-Am-Rendering-001.jpg
