Happy 2015, thread!

Apologies for the potato-phone photos.






Bumper stickers include: local oldies station, Romney/Ryan 2012 (taken in November 2014), and a jiu-jitsu academy. Not pictured: $6.

Spotted a limited-edition BMW finish in the wild, Highlighter Frost. (apologies for quality, my phone fixated on windshield dirt)

It had temporary tags, too, so the tragedy isn't that it exists, but that somebody bought it.

Dude, I regularly see a guy rolling around here in the panhandle plains in a straight-up Morris british taxi converted to LHD and painted silver. I don't know anything about him and I can't even respect the effort because I'm so afraid he's a gross teaboo

Here's the origin story on that bus:

Checks out, given how comfortable I'd imagine climbing into an actual car-sized turd would be.

I've been in a PT Cruiser exactly once in my life and can describe the experience as "a TURDIS". It's roomy inside but I'd only be there under duress

e: it was clowndick purple, the driver was elderly, and the transmission was broken so I consider it an accurate sample

Nah that's straight-up a two wall shelf set. IKEA HAXX

Also I'm terrible car stuff. Instead of replacing a jank thermostat, reprogramming the limits on my window regulators, taking care of a long-standing recall or fixing my melty tail lights, I threw on some new mustaches this weekend and filled in some rock chips on my car's hood.

They were kind of hard to find too because apparently I'm the only one who calls them mustaches:



(but I kept them chrome because I'm not a pervert)

Oh, not the kidneys, but the little strips at the top on the hood. That's what made it even harder.

MrOnBicycle posted:

They removed it for the LCI, and people started (or already had started) to black out the chromed mustaches because they look really bad (especially so compared to the LCI). When I was shopping for an E90 I only looked at LCI's for this reason alone.

Finding an E91 LCI in northwest TX is like asking for dry water, so I took Hans as he was :kimchi:. Except when he gets chrome-alopecia, which is not something I have ever experienced in my life (despite also owning a 37-year-old-motorcycle) nor do I wish to experience again.

Wow this guy really is completely insufferable. I guess that's pretty much a requirement to be popular on Youtube though.

I like the bit where he clearly bumps into the boat next to him while parking.
