Okay, so let's say you're a writer on a popular automotive blog whose name becomes synonymous with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! You decide to keep the bug, and it becomes more famous than you.

Flipping your car and posting it on the internet is dumb. This is why we like Orlove. He does other stupid things in cars too, like !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Anywho, the Lexus obviously died, and being bored, I started thinking about what the worst cars could possibly be for him to buy next. The answer for me was obvious.

I present to you, a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Now, this isn't the maligned later model. This is the original front-sway-bar-less, unsafe at any speed Corvair. With no roof.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Anyway, what do you think is the worst car for Orlove to buy next?

I think he might already own it.

Lol Mercedes-Benz 130 or GTFO.

Get this: This thing didn't even have a front axle, the entire front suspension consisted of just two transversly mounted leaf springs.

It's a good thing the bug has a stealth mode so nobody would notice.

Raph's a good guy.

I was trying to find a good one on his local craigslist, but when I saw the Corvair convertible, I had to go with that.

One of these:

Which is why he must buy one immediately.

Yep, this one's probably it. This is a car that will absolutely try to kill all occupants at every opportunity.

I don't think it's very cheap to fix roll-over damage on these.

Seriously. No wrenching skills and a 40 year old DD?

Right, and I think calling the bug decrepit might be charitable.
