The picture isn't the best but I got a kick out of this thing while I was driving to work today so I tried my best with the camera phone:

What's funny about that car, I mean besides the ground effects kit, is that right in the middle under the bumper, you can see it outlined in the shadow, is a red tow loop that you'd put on a track car. :lol2: :lol2: Yeah, I can see that thing on the track.

You'd be surprised what I see in Orlando on a DAILY basis. I'll try and find the picture I took of the best example.

Alright, this is a late 80s/early 90s Corolla or Camry. So at least they kept it in the family when they badged it a Lexus. Now, problem one is, the "Altezza" is a Lexus IS300 in Europe, however it is under the Toyota marque. So they are incorrectly lableing the car in TWO WAYS while showing stupidity in TWO WAYS. Then, taking off the hubcaps to "save weight" and adding the spoiler for the much needed downforce at that cars top speed of 110mph (if it reached it before it shook apart). Finally we come to the taping of the rear end to make it somewhat look like that "Lexus Altezza", which reduces light emitted by the brakes making the car behind it have a difficult time reacting. So no only is that car a POS, riced out, and lame, it's also DANGEROUS.


And this represents 98% of the fucking people I went to high school with.

See... now that's just stupid. I can understand moding your car... but why rebadge it to something that it's totally not? I dont get that at all. I could understand if it was an IS, but it's a CAMRY... so, there is no association with the Altezza other than the fact that they are both made by Toyota!:bash:
