It's actually significantly shorter and narrower than a Prius. Which I guess says more about how large the Prius is than anything else.

Sorry the i3 is not narrower than a Prius. I personally do not class the Prius as a large car, micro car though it isn't.

The hood was jumped on, the roof was caved in, windows smashed, and various bits ripped off.

Cheating boyfriend? This was in a really nice part of LA in a quiet expensive neighborhood, and judging by the glass on the ground, this damage happened right where it's parked.

This is what happens when you gently caress a stranger in the rear end.

At least they sort of did them a solid (HEH) by keeping it on the hood, and not like, busting a load over onto the fenders and whatnot.

It made me laugh too, it had to be the shittiest sprayed dick possible too. Doing a nice detailed dong would've been a waste. Zero effort.

Of course if it were my car I'd be pissed. For about 30 seconds until I remembered I could afford a $1.2 million car... and I'd probably keep it on there simply because.

Unless those have awful paint and the thing hasn't been waxed in a dogs age, 30 seconds with a rag and a can of acetone should take that right off. Then give it a proper wash and a buff and it's like it never happened.

(This works on most CC/BC type paints I've gotten crap off of, though I'll admit it will almost certainly remove single stage paints, lacquers, etc. Try on an inconspicuous area first, not responsible if you wash all the paint off your veyron with 15 dollars of acetone and my advise, not responsible if can of acetone drinks all the beer in your fridge and rapes your dog like Morally Inept)

I mentioned to my boss about hiring a car while in the USA, and he said "Eh, all American cars are pretty terrible, I've rented a few out there myself."

So I asked him what kind of cars he'd rented.

This is probably a stupid car question but I've never done a burnout in a car without enough power to just spin the wheels on its own with traction control turned off. If you put one foot on the brake as they say in that video and then floor the gas pedal, that can't be very... good, right? Does the car know the brake is engaged and the auto transmission just knows not to do anything or are you seriously screwing up the transmission doing this?

Edit: or are they just revving the engine in neutral and dropping it into Drive when they let the brake off?

It's called power braking and yes people stand on the brakes while they spin up the engine. It is as bad for the transmission as you can imagine.
