Well, that guy kissed any hope of having a sex life away...

Those "guns" mounted just below the doors and the faux-futuristic hupcaps make it look like something from Car Wars.

It's a bizarre cross between an A-Wing and an X-Wing, looks wise.

If I had such a car I would never go into another drive thorugh but speed constantly

I hope he has another car to actually drive places.

It doesn't show up for me.

A small part of me likes it, but most of my brain is screaming at me that it's utterly frivolous and useless; that it's something my girlfriend's six-year-old brother would go nuts over.

The board got slashdotted, but at least someone made a mirror before that happened.

Hmm, that thing the little Obi-Wan action figure is on looks like the base for the Halo Cortana 8-inch Action Figure. Wait, why am I pointing that out?

Anyway, that car is pretty cool, in a geeky sort of way.

LOL. A few posts down read thus "The owner of that garbage has still yet to see what a vagina looks like". I find myself in agreement.

Wow...they make cars that look like little red Xs now...

IMO, the car was fine looking until I saw the pic for the R2 unit. Now THAT was waaay to far.~Jason

Wow, that would certainly sell for many thousands more than it's worth. I wonder if Lucas has something like that.

Am I the only one that thinks that this is just plain sad? For the time and work spent on this, he could have really done something alot more...useful.

IRG CommandoJoe · Post by **IRG CommandoJoe** » 2004-01-19 02:24am

Wow...I like everything on the car except for the R2 unit on the back. I think it's unsafe to have a big obstruction on the back of the car. It should remain clear of any crap. I'd rather replace it with a bunch of power cables and techno-looking junk...sort of like the stuff on the top part of the Y-Wing aft of the "neck."

So you'd actually drive this thing around?

Good luck with the women, bud...

If I wanted to pick up chicks, I'd fly an actual Y-wing. Nothing like being able to take them out on a little interstellar cruise (well, providing they're not afraid of heights, of course.)

Hyperion · Post by **Hyperion** » 2004-01-19 02:58am

Looks really sweet, until you get to the R2 on the back, he should have gone with power cables, hozes, and other technological junk.

I want that steering wheel, I've lost count of how many times that open top configuration would have really helped me out.

(Shrugs.) I'd like to take it out for a ride, but I don't think I'd like to own one. And of course probably no one would know who I am, since my joyride would include me wearing a Rebel pilot helmet.

Damn. I'm a geek, but even i have limits. what a fucking tool.

Chardok · Post by **Chardok** » 2004-01-19 08:05am

QUIET YOU! You're going to the bowl!

Anyway. *ahem* I would drive this thing. I happen to think it oozes neat and bollocks (deference to Rye) to anyone who says otherwise. Vagina? I need no Vagina. I have Porn.

Yeah, there are, but driving around a car that looks like a screwed up A-Wing isn't going to be helping you alot.
