Not safe for work. Adult Language

This video isn't a car, but a 1970's commercial outtake about the very-mundane air shock absorbers.

Do not watch if you're easily offended

The designer throught it would work well with a swept back boot, but managament disagreed..

 

One of these parks down the road from me, and it is as ugly IRL

These guys with the AWD cars come out to play the european drift events and put the drifters to shame. Couple insane reverse entry drifts and massive power slides.

Pontiac Aztek. One of the worst cars ever.

 

 

 

I'm hoping the designer and the whole executive team that approved it never work again :D

Studebaker Dictator

 

Name was acceptable as Mussolini was admired for strength, however renamed the "Commander" post 1937.

 

Due for re-release before 2020.  MAGA.

Adding to the list of shouldn't exist:

 

- Suzuki X-90

 

And I'll probably be crucified for this, but under the crazy banner:

 

- Bugatti Veyron

 

- Bugatti Chiron

 

Everyone thought that Piech was crazy in ordering Bugatti to build a car with 1000bhp and would do 400km/h. Now, we've got it's successor, the Chiron, with nearly 1500bhp. It's a crazy, crazy amount of power for a car to have, but I'm glad it does exist.
