Cars
 
I thought it would be best to create a cars thread since that seems to be what we are talking about in the "Things that piss us off thread".

Let's start with something nice

http://static.cargurus.com/images/si...538010818.jpeg

Chevrolet El Camino SS, because a 7.2L V8 is just what you need in a pickup truck ;)

DarkHoodness 08-25-2011 06:14 AM

Hmm, I wonder where I've seen this thread before.

So I'll offend you all by posting a picture of a Smart. Mwhahah!
(Though used diesel versions of these sell cheaply and have low running costs, I'm seriously considering getting one of these as my first car. Pity me.)

As long as it moves and doesn't cost too much to run...it's fine by me I mean it's just a car, not a cure for cancer.

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 06:29 AM

Anything from Smart looks horrid...

But the Smart ForTwo looks amazing compared to this ugly beast, the Pontiac Aztek, unsurprisingly the car was a failiure

DarkHoodness 08-25-2011 06:32 AM

That thing's ugly too, but I think I can do better than that for car shittyness. This is Renault's new electric car - Called the Twizy5. And it's so hideous that even me with no taste for cars would buy it. Who the hell thought this design was a good idea?

http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...1&d=1314282089

And don't forget the Fiat Multipla - How the hell this was successful is beyond me:

http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...1&d=1314282882

Oh and I'd really love one of these Aptera things if money wasn't an issue and if they sold these here in the UK, it reminds me of the Portal gun somehow. Shame more cars don't have aerodynamics.

I like everything about this big stupid turd of a vehicle.

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 06:42 AM

I believe teh Fiat Multipla sold well due to its "innovative"? 3 seats in the front.

Yeah, the thing that vans have been doing for years.

Dynamithix 08-25-2011 06:43 AM

I don't have a car and I don't want one.

STM 08-25-2011 07:01 AM

^ Amen brudda, Aprilia RS 125cc for the win!

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 07:03 AM

American's always have an obbsession with having something pointless on their cars, as evident with that massive spoiler on the Plymouth Roadrunner, but don't deny it looks cool :D

Another American car I think has a pointless feature is the Chrysler New Yorker, for some reason they decided to add a feature which would allow you to remove the key from the ignition and the engine would continue to run, way cool yeah!... I don't see the point either

I'm not a big car fan either nor do I want one, but gosh darnit, if I ever do I want that.

That car is like pornography, nearly.

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 07:54 AM

Lovely choice!

Havoc 08-25-2011 08:00 AM

The incomparable and infamous "Imperial" by Chrysler. in 1959 these new cars reeked of old money and were Chrysler's answer to GM's Cadillac.

Count in the optional Hemi engine, pushbutton operated "TorqueFlite" automatic transmission, stainless steel roof on the Imperial Crown line, and a car with a length of about 20 feet and you have pure Swank.

I’m not a car expert by any means, so I’ll just say “this is sexy” and leave.

Mmmm. Vintage.

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 08:50 AM

My dream car, in that color aswell

Pilot 08-25-2011 09:15 AM

I'm really loving these new auto designs that are "genetic throwbacks" to their own ancestors, like the Dodge Charger:

http://chrisescars.com/wp-content/up...rger_image.jpg

Based on the 59 Dodge Viscount

http://www.440magnum.com/mopars/2006...s/59dodge2.jpg

And don't forget the ever-angry 1958 Dodge Coronet. Pure Bulk.

http://files.conceptcarz.com/img/Dod...-07-WWG_02.jpg

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 09:20 AM

At least the new Challenger looks like the old Challenger...

Dixanadu 08-25-2011 10:39 AM

The bottom one is a definite fanny-magnet.

JennyGenesis 08-25-2011 12:16 PM

The Peugeot 505 looks angrier than the Coronet.

Havoc 08-25-2011 01:40 PM

Does anyone beside me here actually have a car, btw? :fuzconf:

Pilot 08-25-2011 03:18 PM

Stop ingratiating yourself Havoc. Only I may do that.

Here are my cars:

http://hphotos-sjc1.fbcdn.net/247479...7_574646_n.jpg
1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am "Kitt", Cross-fire injection. PRIDE and JOY.
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7484679_n.jpg
http://hphotos-sjc1.fbcdn.net/262618..._3058295_n.jpg

http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._1035388_n.jpg
1954 Chevy 210 Sedan (The Odd Tour Car)

http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2033171_n.jpg
1960 GMC Carryall

http://pic50.picturetrail.com/VOL465.../274810331.jpg
1957 Cadillac Series 62 (bad picture)

And then a turbocharged '04 Subaru Forester I just got, which is now my 'normal' car.

Fucking epic. I bet your car doesn't have an inbuilt flamethrower Havoc!

Dixanadu 08-26-2011 05:04 AM

The horn is the very loud 'NO', knowing Pilot...

JennyGenesis 08-26-2011 11:13 AM

One of the greatest machines ever built! With special thanks to the Willys Jeep of course ;)

It would, but I would probably use it on anoying people 6.3 seconds after installing it, so I wouldn't be able to enjoy it for long.
