Kinja'd!!!


1,001,011,386 points
2 engines- one twincharged (turbo and super) flathead with 5 throttle bodies and 5 carburetors, one turbine
4 door hardtop convertible RWD dually with a manual shifter on the tree
Mixed origin (of course, it's got to be a custom build)
1001+ horsepower and I answered "yes, it is a vector." That's our base that we're building this dually convertible off of.
Pre-WWII (so that's where some of the flathead parts come from)

Finally, it's got 0 cupholders, 10 ashtrays, 999 bondo patches, truck nutz in Virginia, a working all digital dashboard, hydropneumatic suspension and a waterbed.

Someone should draw a picture of this thing. I bet it'd look awesome.
EDIT- did a quick sketch

FR-S - 101

Jetta - 30

I actually drew something in this vein in high school ten years ago. I'll have to see if I still have the drawing...

Toyota actually built the FR-S to hit that exact score ... they wanted to make a car demonstrating Jalopness 101. #themoreyouknow

I get -20 for a euro diesel, +20 for a manual. I think this test is bogus, designed for detroit metal, crazy HP fans, not a true jalop test at all.

I don't think anything can truly be a true jalop test. It's all about whatever YOU think is automotively cool.

I feel this is more a test of common themes throughout oppo and the fp. But it isn't a catch all, it never would be able to.

Yeah, it would be impossible to get right. I ended up with a pretty decent score i guess, 115. Even with the -20 for Euro diesel. So I can't complain really...

haha yeah, that IS good. My Taurus SHO gets like 30 points, takes a big hit in the cup holder department.
