they always reminded me of those cartoon robots, "Transformers"

Eric, finally a use for the spoiler! It doesn't really help the car go faster and I've always wondered what it was used for.
EADG, transformers

Reminds me of happy childhood days. Maybe that's why I have a soft spot for this ah beng car

Eric
A million what?
I'd drive it - just for a laugh. Simply have to love the Japanese, they can be the weirdest people on earth - simly go to Shibuya to have confirmation of that.

Some of these cars are missing the Knight Rider red light thing.
What has happened to Shilo: he seems to have missed the opportunity in this thread to dig out the photo of his american car again.
Agree with Eric on Mercedes. Overweight, balding crusties or elderly ladies with the "drei-wetter-taft" hairdo (hairdo that withstands all weather conditions from hurricane to sleet and snow due to copious amount of hairspray) and significant amounts of gold drive these cars...
Personally I also like the Honda S2000 and BMW Z4, but find it difficult to get out of sportscars elegantly like you see the ladies doing in the adverts. When you are sitting with your knees around your neck and try to get out it just looks crap.

Oh yes, how could I have forgotten the BMW Z4. Now that's another real beaut.
sputnik, the trick is to swing both your legs out, make contact with the floor, then stand up. You'll get up a lot more elegantly that way.
