Impressive. The photographer is as lovely as the car. The blacks are completely overexposed, and the whites are almost completely blown out.

That roofline looks like one of those old Impreza coupes. If that's what it is, good grief...

Judging from the greenhouse and right-hand drive, it's either a Mitsubishi Mirage coupe or a Proton Wira (same thing).

Yeah, the mirrors definitely aren't from an Impreza, the door handles are wrong and the butt is too short. That's a Mirage.

I actually figured at first it was one of those Kias that looks a little bit like an Impreza, but the Mirage makes way more sense.

I present to you Wikipedia's idea of what a Mirage looks like:

Correct. I get the funny haha, make fun of the idea of people using it to check facebook while driving. But I don't actually see how it'd be possible to use it at all when driving. Thing would get in the way even if you had nothing on it, and if you had something on it you basically could not make a turn without dumping whatever was on it.

Didn't get a picture, but yesterday evening on my way home from work I saw someone in a 2004-05 Hyundai Sonata that had all the badges swapped out for Jaguar X-Type ones. Even had the nifty Jaguar hood ornament, not sure why they'd even go through the trouble when that car looks nothing like a Jag in the first place :psyduck:

Some people are delusional enough that they think others won't realize what the car really is. There was a great CL post from a guy looking for someone to rebadge his Hyundai into a BMW BUT IT HAD TO LOOK PROFESSIONAL. People are dumb. I blame Pimp My Ride. They did poo poo like that all the time. In one episode they swapped over the front end from a BMW to an Escort.

Was there some sort of blacklight line of paint on the pavement invisible to the naked eye that only I couldn't see? Is that first car proud for starting a trend and seeing who could park the worst?

At my work the spaces are at an angle (to save space, basically one way lanes) and in the winter it is hilarious. I once saw a van parked sideways in front of two other cars, like he said "gently caress it" and just gave up. Other times there are 3 cars end to end, so the one in the middle is stuck.

Angled spaces confuse people, for some reason. I figure one of two things happened. Either cars on the other side pulled too far forward and these people did the best they could, or they just lined their doors up with the person next to them not realizing you're supposed to pull further forward.
