Random: Lexus - The Cloning Horror

[zrath]

Same make, same model, same year, same color, same option package.
The only way you can tell them apart is by looking at the license plates.
Stuff like that makes me a little sad.
Also, I dislike inappropriately silver cars, because only Mercedes-Benzes and Aston Martins should be silver.

Trufax: "Lexus" sounds like something REALLY rude in my French hometown slang (in Northern France).
It sounds like "lick-suck". It was hilarious when my great aunt visited us in the late '80s.

Most import lovers (Not that I don't like Imports, it's just an observation) is originality doesn't seem to be a big part of their lives. At least as far as the whole car thing goes.
I had someone say "OH YEAH?? WELL HOW IS THIS FOR ORIGINAL!" and sent me a photo of his Nissan Skyline, a nice rare and FAST car...
I promptly googled 5 cars nearly identical to it. Big spoiler, mass produced front facia, fart muffler that sounds like the Aflac duck losing a fight, and of course the "Fast and the Furious" style sticker "That aint a STICKER, it's a VINYL!" on the sides. (A NISMO logo going diagonally across the fender and the hood, like he stumbled and fell trying to put it on)
I miss the old Ed "Big Daddy" Roth days where they REALLY went nuts being original!

That's what remote keyless entry is for ("chirp-chirp") :)

Ah, I hate those things, especially when they malfunction. Then again, I don't drive and, if I ever did have a car, I'd want to paint a big-"ash" dragon on the hood, or something.

My Honda is silver. I like it that way. Except when it's foggy.
