I don't think we've built anything very good . . .
So instead you're going to fawn over something built somewhere else? With of its its own resident problems?

In terms of older rolling stock: the MP54s, Blueliners, M1s, M2s, M3/M3As, M4s, M6s, Pioneer IIIs, Silverliner II to IVs, Arrow I to IIIs, The Highliners (I and II), South Shore Sharyo EMUs,I don't think we've built anything very good . . .

North America was the gold standard for rail vehicles before Budd Died. ALCO, Budd, GE, Hawker Siddeley Canada, heck even the St. Louis Car Company were all excellent train manufacturers.I mean yes, the stuff in Europe is just better.
Silverliner Vs, but they still run quite well now. The Silverliner II-IIIs were excellent vehicles and the Silverliner IVs are still running with no issues that I know of.Idk, iirc the Silverliners had a lot of issues? And yeah all of these trains look dated inside and out, even though some are pretty new.

Not everything from Europe is automatically better. Remember the Pacers?
Some Bombardier railcars in Europe have had huge issues too.

Appearance is also subjective. Personally, I love the look of the Silverliners, but that shouldn't matter when picking a vehicle. What matters is how well they run, whether it meets the required specifications, and how reliable they are.
This is what we should see for the new fleet, but not the 3 seat. Be nice if some side views were shown of the train
