    They changed the Mattorhorn cars to add capacity to the ride. I'm thinking they changed the Autopia cars to give them a more updated look.

    Matterhornrules, the Matterhorn bobsled cars have been like this for YEARS. Were you expecting to find green-and-yellow ones on your last visit?

    why not change them. they change them for the same reason they upgrade buildings and rides: Sponsorship, safety, modernization, and beauty.

    seems to make sense to me.

    The bobsleds on the Matterhorn are hideous. They looked so much better with the green stripe and one car. I do understand capacity, though, so I would support 2 cars per train, without those awful orange and purple stripes. Way too 1970-ish.
