OK yeah, that Omologata I can deffo get behind. It's screaming "250 GTO" in my face and I love that.

Of course, *that's* the design they choose to make only one of, so who cares?

Does that racecar have a front mounted v6 or is it an i3?

Or is it delivering a birthday cake?

Car with a chute. A bridge. A man under the bridge.

It's supposed to be a metaphor for how the last sprint went. I ... think we were supposed to think of things that corresponded to like, the car (things that moved us forward), or the chute (things that held us back), or the bridge (???), or the guy in the pit (??????)

You know, an easily relatable situation we've all been in. Driving our racecar over a bridge so we don't fall in and kill some guy.

I was trying to figure out why the engine was in the front or why the assumption was that the chute was like, always deployed and dragging behind you, or whether an F1 car would even be able to get over an arched bridge like that, and nobody else could make heads or tails of it either and we gave up

I thought it was a formula 1 cake delivery service that got delayed by a bump in the road and had to panic stop, so it's not actually faster than a normal delivery van.

I'm convinced that it's a very small minority of firms that are propping up Italy's reputation for ~style~, because between all the mall stores selling Tony Soprano gear and this thing that looks like a Chinese Rolls Royce ripoff from 10 years ago things are looking rough overall.

I typed out a whole effortpost about specific things that suck rear end about this design and why they suck rear end and then deleted it.

It just looks like a model from a car game that doesn't have a license to use the actual brand so they build an approximation of it. I don't even love the DeLorean and I hate this thing so much.

He's also had this atrocity with a custom body that cost a million dollars. I think it's a Beetle as a base.




His new ride is a Tesla with a dumb body kit.

Will is a perfect example of what happens when someone is talented in one area of artistry and assumes they're talented in others.

...that and having nobody around to tell them they loving suck at something.

He also has previous for stealing music so it's rather fitting all he can do is make a shittier version of a car that already exists seeing as that's what he did with the music too :v:

It's so weird how you can identify the base car from something as seemingly insignificant as the flat windshield or the pointy 3/4 window shape

On the other hand, it's art, so if it makes him happy who gives a gently caress.

I'll still trash on it for being ugly art though. :v:

Yeah you're gonna have to source your quotes on that one bud; Motor Trend says his C1 corvette with the C6 interior was done at WCCustoms as well as his re-bodied Delorean and his Beetlebomination started at a small shop before being 'finished' by WCCustoms (which Jalopnik says took 2 years after being at the first shop for the better part of a year because dude is fickle as gently caress).
