    Are they chrome shower heads on the back of the last one?

    Some people have too much money to throw away...

    The second last one doesn't look bad in fairness, its a Honda Integra by the way.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,461 ✭✭✭Max_Damage


    Nah, this is the worst IMO:

    The car is actually a Honda CRX.

    Sorry lads, there's much worse doing the rounds in Cork. Yes, Cork. A Volvo V70 Saloon (The old ones), with a body kit, BMW Kidney Grills, BMW Alloys, and BMW Badges. It looks wrong, wrong, wrong, and I'd be so embarrassed to drive it. Black all over and "BMW Power" across the top tint.

    Why?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,173 ✭✭✭overdriver


    So they'd have the look of a BMW, but not blow headgaskets?

    :D

    I'd love to take one, I haven't spotted it since. And I was like a dog my phone was in my desk at work.

    There used to be an orange Seat Cordoba or VW Polo saloon (couldn't tell which one it was) going around Limerick with a fake BMW front on it. Hopefully it's gone forever now...

    I think I've seen that car around before (it was in the Firhouse area of Dublin alot until about a couple of months ago). Looked absolutely crap.

    Why can't people just save their money are buy a real BMW?

    Yeah it actually looks well enough i think!. ..Going by my expertíse however , I think its an Accord Coupé rather than an Intergra as you say.

    It looks like a MK1 MR2 & a MK 3 or 4 Celica. (Mongrel not hybrid !!!)

    Anyway, there is no accounting for taste.

    I reckon you can break it into 5 categories...
    1. Jap motors
    2. Euroboxes
    3. Yankmobiles
    4. Italian
    5. The rest!

    There's the categories. There are nice and ugly ones from every nation in the world!

    Considering what I got my last ban for maybe that was ill advised. No point editing it now though, after two of you have been kind enough to quote me.

    Cheers!
