WTF did I see today? The tounneau roof looked terrible, the badge looked poorly applied. It reminded me of a knockoff of Obama's armored limo Cadillac XTS XL

Seat Safety Switch posted:Honey that strange man who works for the magazine and drives all those loud cars is locking our kid in his trunk.  I actually refused to let them try it the first couple of cars for that very reason. Made them get permission from their folks before eventually saying yes. Jaded little buggers didn't even want pictures with the FF because it was a boring color. And for some reason they're not very excited about the new Volt which I'm testing next month.

Not sure what's worse, the tires that have clearly been driven on while very flat, or hitting that post hard enough to slide up and back down. That must have made a noise.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say this looney tooned itself by ramping off the parking block there. Just enough bounce up to get it's teeth caught on the post. Would have been a perfect event to capture on video.

That's not a wild guess, that's rather realistic. I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's a rust belt explorer and he backed in there until the front bumper caught on it. This guy took wrong-side pumping to a whole new level.

AAA had showed up right as I got to the store and was waiting for the owner, which I thought strange. I talked to a nearby employee (loving the whole thing) who said the car had been there when he got to work early in the AM. Right before I went into the store, a very disheveled and scared looking teenager showed up with his tight-lipped dad to assist the AAA truck in getting the car off. Judging by my observations I would surmise that babby's first tipsy late-night beer run ended quickly with mixing up the brake and gas as he pulled into the slot, resulting in a spectacular launch off the chock onto the bollard

The modifications are some terrible poo poo, but I don't blame that guy for parking like that at all, otherwise his turning radius* would keep him trapped the second anyone parked next to him. * which is likely only sanely expressed in parsecs or AU.

This car pretty much wraps back around to awesome again, but ultimately I guess it fits in this thread. Mostly because he chopped the top off a unibody car without any visible bracing. And look at that camber!  What are those, 30" tall?

I want to see him drive somewhere like Seattle, or Vancouver. That would be a sight. Although I'm pretty impressed it hasn't folded in half, can't imagine much planning went into that project.
