Default The Fail Thread

What I saw at work today inspired me to create our very own fail thread, full of stories and pictures of cars that simply...fail. Let me give two example, the former a picture of a car on my block:

Name:  2008_0317rice0001.jpg
Views: 163
Size:  149.1 KB

And the latter a picture I took today of my boss's Mustang (V6 auto); mind you, he took $2000 of our profits to do this...:

I died laughing after he pulled away. He thinks it looks good...also, you can't see it in that picture, but it reads "Commander Cosentino" across the windshield. Sad.

It's not really a Mustang without a V8. That's just awful.

All I can say is that he's a scientologist. That should answer any questions about his mental state.

I saw the perfect FAIL for this thread today outside of work. Unfortunately I did not have a camera, so try to picture this.
A first gen Saturn coupe, dark green with reverse racing stripes on the hood. I'm sure you have all seen Saturn's in that deep jade green color, right?
What do I mean by that you ask?
Three wide strips of contact paper in a med-blue marble (very pale blue, almost white background) one in the middle, and one each on the sides of the hood allowing the the factory green to appear as if the hood (only the hood) had been striped.
Add to that, the entire roof was done in this same marbled/blue pattern. I didn't look at the back of the car to see what was done there.... probably more of the same.
Can you picture that?
