Anyone know what this one is called? It looks a bit like a Coyote. Those wipers look pretty useless.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

What panel gap?

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Star Blazer?

A VW based kit car,

I can tell you for sure it’s a kit car, and Carfax has it registered as a Geo Metro.

It’s clearly a sturb lurzer.

I knew it started with an M, just looked it up and that’s called a Manta, supposed to look like a McLaren M6. Too bad they went with square headlights. I think I know where there’s one of these sitting under a cover in the next town over from me.

Doesn’t look like a Manta

The license plate clearly means “strobe laser.” They obviously are fans of techno.

There are different versions of them, the front lights are different here but I’m pretty sure it’s a modified Manta. The rest is pretty close. That red one has the more correct light setup to look like the M6GT.

I think it’s a Manta Montage, the VW based version. Your photo is the original Manta / Manta Mirage.

It looks dreadful, this Sturblurzur.

Ah, so it is the Manta Mirage/Coyote. The lights confused me. It’s a lot jankier than I would have expected, but I guess that’s the way it goes with kit cars.

It is a replica of the Porsche racecar using a VW pan. My first thought it was a similiar kit to the car used in Death Race 2000.

Why doesn’t that old show get any love. Such a cool car.

I’m not surprised....

That’s it: I think you’ve just found Fur Coat ’s new ride! Must be quite exhausting driving it with that side window banging your head every single corner. Better train those muscles in your neck with all those G’s.

Any idea on the engine used to launch this beast?

I do prefer that Volvo in front of it!


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris

Haha. Fur Coat would look nice behind the wheel. What color would she paint it? I can’t see her with that yellow. I guess that’s why they removed the windows. It seems like they were just glued on.

I think these were a VW kit, so maybe a Beetle motor. It looks like a Bug exhaust. Unless this one’s got a Porsche engine and that’s why that badge is on there. It’s the same car that was in Hardcastle & McCormick except with really ugly headlights.

Dat Swedish ass always looks so sexy. Its owner must have impeccable taste.

I didn’t even notice those windows, what is that about???

Hardcastle & McCormick? Don’t ring a bell!

It’s owner must be from royal ancestry. Or maybe the child of some exotic secret agent.

I think they were blown off from the incredible speed. And cheap epoxy.

It was an 80's cop show. I included it in my cop car post. It wasn’t particularly interesting except for the car, so I’m not surprised you didn’t get it.

Kinja'd!!!

The Saint 2016: Son of the Saint . I would pitch that, but people still remember the stupid Val Kilmer movie.

Kinja'd!!!1

Hey, that one misses it’s windows as well! That’s quite some oversteer there!

Does dad Eisen have a cameo in it? I’d watch that. Even with Val Kilmer as sr.


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/02/2016 at 14:26

Kinja'd!!!1

I don’t think that guy with the hat would fit with the windows installed. I think that’s McCormick.

Oh, he’s definitely in it to pass the torch to Jr. Isn’t Roger still around? He’d be a great cameo.

89 and still going strong. Val isn’t according to Michael Douglas. Although Val denies any of it. Hahaha.

I don’t trust anything Val or Michael Douglas says. Roger can play grandpa Saint. I’m not sure I want to deal with Kilmer.

Kilmer should have stopped after Top Secret. Epic movie.

Haha, was that Du-Quois or Latrine getting penetrated? Best part is that submarine entering the basement after turning that mega magnet on.

I thought it was Nigel in the back of the cow.

I forgot about the submarine scene. Haha. It’s at the beginning of that video.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/07/2016 at 03:13

Kinja'd!!!1

Haha, the boots on that cow, and the scene with Val crawling to these boots: I need to re-see it! Oh yeah, it was Nigel! That awful bastard!


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/08/2016 at 00:41

Kinja'd!!!1

Yeah, I haven’t watched it in too long. Every scene is a comedic masterpiece. Fuckin’ Nigel. I always love the end when he’s stuck in the cow suit and the little cow goes to “feed.”

It’s a typical Zucker, Abrahams & Zucker production, each time you watch it you see a new joke. I like that moving train platform. And that German course. “Ich have Sauerkraut in meine Lederhosen!” You don’t want to know how much I told people that in Germany/Austria!

Haha. Yeah, it’s non-stop. I should queue it up to distract myself from this election disaster. How did they respond? Isn’t that a common expression?
