So this is a thing I saw today in a parking lot. In case you were wondering, yes, the Smart logo is still on the steering wheel behind the smoked glass but I couldn't get a picture of it due to said smoked glass.

I saw a fully-converted (aside from LHD rather than RHD) GTO at a car show here in Seattle about 6 months ago. It was actually very, very well done, with all the correct interior and everything. (the one I saw was white).

meatpimp posted:The description started out innocently enough... '89 Caprice with an LS7. Interesting! But then... 30" wheels. Fiberglassed interior. Lambo doors. Reverse-hinged hood and trunk. The Incredible Hulk theme. Oh poo poo, we landed squarely into this thread's territory.

meatpimp posted:Without a doubt there's a legitimate AI component to it. The worksmanship is high, the hood and trunk are hydraulically actuated and from what you can see in the pictures, the hood hinges were done to a reasonably high level. Yeah. With reasonably-sized wheels at the very least it would be significantly less awful, if still a bit ridiculous. The wheels are just so bad that it makes the rest of an interesting car with a silly paintjob just awful.

grover posted:Only one of my cars is silver! The other is gray My headlights are on all the time, even in daylight in clear weather. I believe it. I don't like driving around Seattle when the weather is inclement because enough idiots don't use their turn signals already. Add in reduce visibility and people thinking that their SUV is big enough to where they don't need headlights either and it's a wonder that we don't have more accidents than we already do.

blk posted:I drive a silver car and am fine with the color, but I keep my lights on 100% of the time. Here in the PacNW it is very gray and people have a hard time remembering to turn their lights on at dusk, let alone during poor light conditions. I really think we should make it mandatory in any driving conditions other than direct sunlight, as well as at any speeds above 45 (eg on rural highways, etc).

Took this today in Seattle. As you'd expect the driver is mid-thirties, chubby, greasy unkempt black hair with the little bald spot you can see in the picture.

Spotted this while walking to the bus this morning: My best guess is that someone just wanted to list all their favorite things on their car. What I don't understand is how their favorite things ended up being the combination of Rihanna, Batman, Transformers, Marilyn Monroe, and Romeo.

Das Volk posted:Fears about things like this have always influenced my driving habits WRT following distance and avoiding staying behind industrial vehicles and trucks. The lady who restocks our office lunch/coffee room had a tire hit her truck a couple years ago and had to have glass removed from her eyes Yeah, this is why when I see a truck carrying poo poo like that, gently caress the speed limit, it's time to pass them. Never stay behind or next to anything carrying loads that aren't absolutely securely tied down.
