Short stubby cars, and green paint. Never very popular, but I'm sure that the people who worked so hard on them won't appreciate the opinion!

I wasn't thinking of you. :-) I believe their perception was not too flawed, but pretty harsh criticism for the guys who broke sweat to get them ready. It might have been better to showcase the 15 "most beautiful" vehicles.

How about the plane with removeable wings, that were towed behind it on a trailer? :-)

Well, I guess I don't see any reason to ever bother wasting money on that rag!!!!!! I suppose they would prefer a beige Volvo????

What bothers me about "creations" like those 15 is the wasted money and time people expended to get their 15 seconds of fame (never 15 minutes like Andy Warhol thought we all got).
There might be a couple, maybe even 3 or 4 that with a new paint job or decent wheels and/or trim would be fine.
