Normally, things this stupid curve back to awesome, but not here. Perhaps it's a black hole of stupid, where no awesome can escape. Perhaps it's quantum stupid, and therefore the rules of classic stupid don't apply.

Pfft don't hate on the guy, he just really loves Playboy, America, X-Men, and Wolverine. And wants you to know about it.

I assume the N is some school they went to.

Sadly, the N is for University of Nebraska Lincoln, and sadly I haven't seen this thing anywhere nearby. Then again I'm in Omaha and very rarely go to Lincoln unless it's for work.

Wish I'd had my camera when I saw the tricked out, metallic electric blue Geo Metro that was driving around my neighborhood the other day...I mean, it looked clean and decently done, but a Geo Metro? Whomever owns it just designed their own custom coffin without realizing it.

Also I'm way more curious than is healthy about what's over the rear wheel, but the detail is lost in the glare. Where's Deckard when you need him.

I love the way he has completely ruined the effect of those expensive, fragile "blade" wheels by putting brake dust covers behind them. If he's going to have brake dust covers why not just go with wheels that are a tiny bit less impractical?

Kastein's posts got me thinking. The excuse given for slammed cars is generally "it's OK, it's on bags". But what if the only reason we collectively recoil in horror of bro truck engineering is because we can see it, it's all on display. I can't imagine that just because it's on airbags means it's been well designed, engineered, and constructed. There's bound to be plenty of airbagged cars built from booger slag welds, body filler, rebar and discount eBay airbag kits. We just can't see the horrors that lie beneath.

If it's on bags and is functional, like you can actually drive it as it was intended to stock or better, I could care less what you do appearance wise.

It's when someone ruins the poo poo out of a car by hellaflush slamming it, or ruins the poo poo out of a truck by turning it into a giant monument to their shrunken manhood, that I get annoyed.

I saw something similar in terms of diddy wheels sizes a few weeks back. It's been made for a sprint track and apparently is the quickest round it out of anything that's tried so far.

It looked weird as poo poo.

In fairness, that tube-framed beast is hardly a TT.

Still ugly as sin - I'd flog it on the track tho! :getin:

Saw someone with a Mazda3 sticker on their Mazda3's driver's side mirror. Not on the outside cap. Smack in the middle of the glass. I guess to remind themselves what car they're driving?

I see a Civic where I work a lot, it's a black car and on the door handles there's a big CIVIC sticker right on the handle in red.

Maybe they're not a car nerd and someone got mad at them for always calling it an accord or a camry or something.
