Yes. An Accord with a landau top. I think I need to rename my segment to "Landau Sightings". Spotted at work (from my car).

Dude I've only ever seen one Landau'd car that made me turn my head ever, and it was an XTS. It's out of control down there.

I've seen a lot of messed up things in my life. And this definitely breaks the top ten

I always wonder if customers specifically ask for these, or just buy them because the dealer already installed it and they want the car. Sort of a chicken and egg thing.

I mean, even if you liked how these roofs looked on cars back in the day, you'd have to be legally blind to think they look good on modern cars with their more dramatically raked rooflines.

Really want to blow grandma's mind? Tell her that her Grand Marquis is made in Canada.

Landau tops are just a mess. They look bad, crack and peel with age, and don't have any function whatsoever. Just stupid.

One of my neighbors has a Kermit green Nissan Maxima, with a tan carriage top, and chrome wheels with vogue tires on them. Looks HORRIBLE.

Yes, he's an old retired guy.

Seen this many times on Camry, Accords, Maximas, Sonatas at the Jersey shore with Florida tags. Worse I saw yet was a black CTS coupe with yellow lined tires and a black landau top beyond ugly.

So I haven't seen a Sonata yet.... And now I'm really scared.

The worst I ever saw was a new Cadillac SRX (yes, the crossover)

Its such a stupid old person obsession.
