I would say no - not unless this sits for too long without an entry.

What's the measuring stick then? I guess I'm just looking for an interpretation as to what you mean by doppelganger.

We just picked up a highlander, and parked next to a q5, I was surprised at the similar overall lines, but still marked differences.

Example:

Not serious submission...

I'd say you should come up with a challenge!

Let's see a smokeshow! Show me your seafoam burning, ringless piston smoke show from your jalopy/maintenance hoopty, whatever. We already bombed the burnout challenge... Let's see the real deal

Edit: 2-smoke entries also acceptable.

Wish I would have taken a photo of the garage floor below the tailpipe, it looks like it has freckles :gonk:

Draw a penis on your car with something highly-visible and removable (i.e glass chalk, bright green masking tape, etc), drive to an autoparts store, and post a photo of the event :siren:

edited to specify what "driving around a bit" meant (i.e. to an autoparts store)

4. We'll give a challenge a week to get fulfilled. After that, democracy or fascism or something will decide what your horrible esoteric unpopular challenge gets replaced with.

Ohhhh, it's a week. I thought it was 3 days. Back to dong challenge.

The spirit of the glass chalk was something visible and non-permanent so if someone wants to make a big ol' wang in high-viz masking tape, be my guest! I'll update the challenge post.

I'll leave this up until tomorrow night when I land in NOLA.

This challenge mad me realize just how much mental cruise control I use during parts runs. Must have been a dozen runs this week and only now did I remember to do it.

:frogsiren:

POST A PICTURE OF YOUR CAR NEXT TO THE ARTISTIC BASIS OF ITS MARQUE'S LOGO. :frogsiren:

Like, a Daadge with a bighorn sheep, an Olds with a spacefaring vehicle, Mazda and whatever bird that's supposed to be, etc. I'll let somebody do a Mustang with some horses or whatever if nobody jumps right away.

Probably talking about Ford.

But can you be 'next to' something that not even light will be next to for over 400 years?

The idea was to leave 'the same challenge but with model' for somebody else to use but I also don't want to slow the game down any more than I already have by being a big stickler. I dunno let's give it a couple days.

It's commonly believed the blue and white of the BMW logo represents a spinning propeller due to the companies history building airplane engines. The colors actually represent the colors of the Bavarian flag.

If this doesn't count since I didn't drive anywhere I apologize but hey not often you get to use the big propeller sitting in the living room for something.
