I can’t find the link at work but you should see the behind-the-scenes video on that rollover. The Aston was so stable they couldn’t even get it to roll over using a ramp! They ended up needing to install a piston on the passenger side to force it up and over.

Ohhhh yes please change the title on the AOTD if needed but this is textbook.

I love this so much that I have to put it in here even though I know this is from a print ad, not a Hollywood movie; let’s just conclude the creative types putting together the shoot come from the same gene pool.

Fast and Furious 4: Notice anything missing from this STI when it rolls over?

Cover for the mounting point for the screw-in tow eye. Or are you talking about the thing below it?

The fact that the engine and suspension aren’t even worth a footnote tells me everything I need to know about this car. It’s an appliance. It’ll sell to people who buy appliances. Wake me if they decide to do an SE-R/SE-R Spec V.

Bungie strapped hood ornaments on economy cars. I used to love flapping the one on my Dad’s car like a door stopper when I was a kid. I got yelled at a lot.

Fake exhaust should be a top-10 for sure.

Fog light blanks.

they topped that already:

Those are fighting words, yo! Padded bras are a dream! If you have shallow breast tissue (not the same as small boobs, you can be an E cup and have shallow tissue), they make up the difference. That and they’re so super duper comfy.

Covering the entire engine bay in plastic.

BMW Genuine Puddle Lights - excuse me - LED Door Projectors. If you’ve run out of people to impress with your car, now you can show all those puddles just how important you are.

fine line between ridiculous and cool, usually in the eye of the beholder, the RX8 had all sorts of details pointing to the rotary engine underneath the hood, depending on your feelings these could be cool or ridiculous

Companies like Ford and Buick slapping fake side vents on everything and ruining it for the whole world.

I completely disagree. I was disappointed by the Miata’s front end. The headlights look to small, like beady little eyes. The side profile is OK, but I will say the rear end looks quite nice, even if it is Jag reminiscent.

Sure, your monthly payment will stay the same. But instead of 20 months left on your loan, you’ll have 72 months left.

KITT’s turbo boost.

Not sure if this counts, but R2D2 travelling on sand. I’m a big fan, but this seemed too unbelievable as far as I was concerned.
