Petitions are awesome, though I’m not sure that’s how we should select Nobel prize winners... Boaty McBoatface.

That was my first thought but no, I think the ‘body’ is supposed to be behind the chassis in terms of perspective. I think. I feel like maybe that was the message this image was supposed to communicate but it clearly doesn’t do a good job of it.

I’m lucky because they all fall into one category for me; cars that I can’t afford, period.
