Dumb Quote of the Day

In any case, convertibles “are bought only by older people,” scoffed Jim Farley, head of the Scion division which makes cars so ugly I want to hit someone every time I see one.

I think it's because try as they might, Scion spent a lot of money in the design phase but no matter what they drew, sculpted or molded, they just couldn't come up with an ugly convertible, so now they're giving up.

Well the standard Scion looks like a shoebox, so a convertable Scion would look like a shoebox with the lid taken off.

Don't ask me, though, I'm still bitter about how every angle of the new Ford Mustang kicks ass... except the rear. It's like they spent too long on the rest of the vehicle and when they got to the back of the car just shoved on tailights from an old Buick.
