Impressive display of what wealth can do. Hasn't helped, of course; even with all that extra lighting, the driver couldn't place it in the parking space.

@CJinSD: I'd prefer to think they're our new Toyotas and Hyundais myself rather than landfill.

All right you bunch: confession time!

@CobraGuy: I"ll take a Pinto Cruisin' Wagon for the "cool these days but utterly weenie back when" award.
