Is the “Fire Storm” Emblem on the front of the car on the billboard making the whole thing look AI generated, or am I getting paranoid? Or maybe both?

Whole set of panels from the author here. These are very old stuff (take a look at the Politics section, it is filled with references to 60s and 70s era US; therefore I guess this too was made much before).

I think they’re playing off the vanity of the car makers and owners wanting everyone to know exactly what car it is.
