Beaterz.com is one of the funniest automotive sites on the internet.
Some of the appraisals of the hilarious rice-burners and other souped-up clunkers that the authors have discovered in and around Chicago IL are works of literary art.
"Yellow stripes = Power, Stickers = Power" fantastic stuff and a great way to piss away a dull workday morning.
Be sure to check-out the hate mail, it's classic.

A shame it's not a four door. Customised four doors always look so much tackier than the two door equivalent.
