This. There are probably counterexamples, but at least some models of Mercedes from that era worry me (which is okay, because they're not to my particular taste anyway).

+1 for teaching me the proper term for our language is "Jalopnish."

-Mustang ST

And, Schrempp managed to cheapen and dilute the Mercedes line while he was at it. Personally I find the Mercedes of that era to be some of the least desirable (not to say they're bad looking or anything, just that they lost the "bank vault" quality.)

Also perhaps I should mention it can be piloted upside down?

I don't know about weirdest, but maybe coolest: The DeepFlight Super Falcon. Carbon fiber construction, and it's buoyant...it has to be powered to "sink," because it uses its wings to descend under power. If you lose power, the thing just bobs back to the surface. I hear it's fun to "fly," too.

In the Accord example, if the problem is really isolated to the radio and doesn't affect things like climate control, it seems odd to pull the recommendation. As ADabOfOppo said, these faults still need to be catalogued and fixed—they're increasingly common, but not in the same class as a self-destructing valvetrain…

Also, "Corbin Sparrow kooky engine swap" gives me a great terrible idea for LeMons.

Or in this case, stall is probably "dead battery" since they're electric. Unless this one has some kooky engine swap. Which would raise other questions.

I really like the Model S, but your post still made me laugh. Call me snarky.

This would be really funny if not for the loss of life. "New car smell?" <shakes head>

This. Was. Awesome.
