I mean if that was true, one should also not touch French cars when they have a fever.

On a related note, I came across this stanced version of the Tata Magic Iris van. Still not sure if it’s better or worse than the original pictured above.:

There’s also some “interesting” stuff that came from behind the iron curtain:

The Crunk.

Inspired by the Fab 1 from Thunderbirds?

I’m not saying you’re wrong. Only that perception of value varies from person to person.

As long as it doesn’t end up being the kind of attempt at a Halo car that the Plymouth Prowler was. An interesting design exercise, sure, but what else? What did that give us? The PT Cruisers face? Plymouth still went defunct.

Hey! I resemble that remark. I used to be a raver and a DJ with flashy sports cars and then an Audi. Then I became an Engineer, had kids (who now play soccer), and sold the Audi for an Acura. Mostly gave up PBR in favor of Gin and Tonics.. No short-shorts, Gap polos, sweater-vests or a fanny packs yet, and I still do…

The problem with Acura is I can’t even keep up with what they have anymore.

It looks like it was designed by a committee, using some sort of a broken agile design methodology, where each designer pair was sent out to design an element of the car that would do a specific thing or serve s specific purpose. In the world of software development, that India is known for, it works fine. Each…

Along the same lines, a random pro-tip: a front wheel bearing outer race from an 89 Firebird Formula is the perfect tool to press/hammer in the axle seals for a Fiero 4-speed transmission. I’m pretty sure they were made specifically for that use first, and later used for the wheel bearings.

Just yesterday I saw a 3-series wagon, covered in paint splatter around the hatch and two huge ladders strapped to the top...

My MDX came with a shoe as well. A single tiny back bejazzled ballet shoe.

My Fiero came with entirely too many French Fries behind the drivers seat, and a “Designed by Lotus” badge in the center glovebox that thankfully wansn’t applied to any part of the car.

Can’t say I’ve seen the interior of a Talon before..

Kids can shove all sorts of things in CD players. Assuming the fuse wasn’t part of the CD player itself of course..

There’s a good “lost his marbles” joke here somewhere.. I’m just too lazy to think of it.

Weird Al missed an opportunity with “Unscrammmble My Eggs” in the 90s.. Would have gone great with “Eat It”.

Had a front wheel bearing go at 60 on a highway, right next to a semi truck, on my 89 Firebird Formula. Scary as hell. Managed to hold it together and immediately pull into the next exit, and a convinient shop right at the exit. When I stopped, the bearing had heated up to point of welding it all together. After…
