Woah!!! WTF!! I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder (and a poke in the eye to the rest of us) but what the hell is with those built-in trailer things? And how the hell do you check the oil with that thing on there?
Is this some car scene I never heard of, or is it an abberation, a rare cancer no one has to worry about contracting?
And finally, where the hell can these cars be found? Because I want to avoid that place.

Bart posted this on his Yahoo group, but it needs to be seen by even more AMCers.
When folks call your AMC 'ugly', you send them here... http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/20050116tas2.html
(Don't view that page for at least an hour after eating).
A few comments on the pictures there...
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/052531.jpg That's killer! An ancient Toyota Camry made up to mimic a Mercedes...and it's IN Japan!! Bwahahahahaha!
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/052871.jpg I may print these photos to show folks when they call OUR cars ugly! But what's with those freakish front spoilers sticking WAaaaay out front? Godzilla's shoe horns? Wait 'til THAT trend comes to the US! It'll come in handy when a row of them is parked in a lightly flooded parking lot...you'll walk along those things to keep your feet dry!
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/052791.jpg http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/053121.jpg Now, these kinda have a profile of a Spirit-AMX, modified of course. Looking past the changes, I'll bet that was a fairly pretty car in it's day. Love the tail lights.
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/053071.jpg http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/053061.jpg Ignore the silver car...I wish they showed more of that purple one. Reminds me of the Aussie Dodge Charger's styling...pretty.
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/052961.jpg Now there's a spoiler that's effective at ANY speed...tho it's 'effect' is to turn stomachs!
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/053001.jpg When not being driven, this one doubles as a skateboard park!
http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/053051.jpg OK...I tried really hard to create a punchline for this one, but I just can't do better than the car itself. What kind of annurism sparked that idea??
