You know those balls that they put on car antennas so you can find them in the parking lot? Those should be on EVERY CAR!

[–]Scalawag 7 points8 points ago

...that's the purpose of those balls?

[–]Qwigs 50 points51 points ago

When I rev the engine I want people to think the WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!!

[–]FilipinoPhil 39 points40 points ago

Does it have rack and peanut steering?

[–]K0nqu3st 35 points36 points ago

$82,000? This monstrosity costs $82,000?!

[–]Murphy_Its_You 41 points42 points ago

Forbes Magazine called it the "Blunder of the Century".

[–]frau_chang 26 points27 points ago

what about new coke

[–]memarianomusic 23 points24 points ago

Hey! I invented that!

[–]SayNo2Kryptonite 8 points9 points ago

What would that be today? anyone know? This eppy was in 1991.

[–]byproxxy 12 points13 points ago

About $130000

[–]SayNo2Kryptonite 6 points7 points ago

this seems about right. And hilarious.

[–]cootzified 37 points38 points ago

You can never find a horn when you're mad.

[–]muffinmonk 2 points3 points ago

This was the most hilariously stupidest thing I've ever heard come out of Homer's mouth.

[–]Khalexus 0 points1 point ago

Well, I can never find my horn when I'm pissed off and I need to use it. I keep mashing my hand into the centre of the steering wheel, forgetting that they don't go there anymore these days... that the horn is just a couple of small sections on the sides of the wheel -.-

Hello! Hello, Einstein! I said a place to put my drink. You know those Super Slakers they sell at the Kwik-E-Mart? The cup is this big!

[–]Guysbert 23 points24 points ago

The separate passenger compartment for annoying kids is just brilliant!

[–]bacontaco 24 points25 points ago

La Cucaracha

[–]mr_onetwo 6 points7 points ago

I'm glad you beat me to this.. Mine would've been horribly misspelled.

Powell makes a pow-pow-powerful car

[–]maskake 10 points11 points ago

Didn't Danny Devito play his brother in this episode?

[–]jonthedoors 15 points16 points ago

Back when the cameos were subtle...

[–]Lazy_Overachiever 9 points10 points ago

You wouldn't believe the celebrities who did cameos! Dustin Hoffman, Michael Jackson. Of course, they didn't use their real names, but you could tell it was them.

[–]Khalexus 6 points7 points ago

Didn't Michael Jackson voice the guy called Michael Jackson who wasn't actually Michael Jackson?

[–]mojobytes 0 points1 point ago

And according to Harry Shearer when "Michael" sang in the episode it wasn't actually Michael but another guy pretending to be Michael...confusing.

Sam Etic

[–]pondering_a_monolith 5 points6 points ago

Yes.

[–]OptimusDimebag 9 points10 points ago

Ha, I loved using this car on Simpsons Road Rage, never got tired of spamming "La Cucaracha" as a sped through Springfield.

[–]orthag 5 points6 points ago

It was the best car in the game. It started out with more time, had a higher top speed and handled better than any other car.

[–]mojobytes 0 points1 point ago

I found Bandit to be the best handling car, but I loved the Homer.

[–]frau_chang 7 points8 points ago

i'd drive that

[–]Frencil 8 points9 points ago

...yet soft and yielding like a Nerf ball.

[–]SayNo2Kryptonite 0 points1 point ago

I use this line often.

[–]Jakelshark 16 points17 points ago

By modern standards, it isn't that horrible.

[–]Slurmoholic 6 points7 points ago

Uncy Herb delivers

[–]aaronlewis33 5 points6 points ago

I'd still buy it

[–]stowy 2 points3 points ago

What Homer wants, Homer gets.

[–]capndetroit 9 points10 points ago

Take my money!

[–]jeffroeq 5 points6 points ago

I want that in Lego!

[–]h2omanjace 3 points4 points ago

Hot wheel

[–]pohatu 2 points3 points ago

I wonder if we could get this built by enthusiasts with the 3d printers and stuff. Is there a subreddit we can post to? I don't suppose any of you are also interested in that stuff. Maybe it's the project that will get me started...

[–]crystalpistol 2 points3 points ago

Still better looking than a Pontiac Aztec

[–]SambaLando 1 point2 points ago

God those things are hideous, right up there with the Nissan Cube.

[–]mojobytes 0 points1 point ago

Ugly, but if Breaking Bad is at all accurate they must be made out of diamonds to take all that punishment.

[–]Afshari 2 points3 points ago

I would buy that :-)

[–]ContentWithOurDecay 0 points1 point ago

It's, it's beautiful.

[–]whiteskwirl2 2 points3 points ago

This is a picture of an actual plastic model; I have one and it is awesome.

[–]Khalexus 0 points1 point ago

Do want.

[–]blackleaf420 -1 points0 points ago

No it's not. And no you don't. It's a CG render using Blender.

[–]whiteskwirl2 1 point2 points ago

[–]clebo99 1 point2 points ago

Was this done in Maya? Very well done.

[–]Armitando 1 point2 points ago

...extremely large cup holder...

[–]stonecutterunderwear 1 point2 points ago

Powell makes a pow-pow-powerful car.

[–]chitwin -1 points0 points ago

I want to drive this

[–]adamzep91 1 point2 points ago

I would buy the fuck out of that car. (Assuming it doesn't cost $82,000 in 1993 dollars)

[–]steverado87 0 points1 point ago

Oh God...I'M RUINED!!

[–]unprotected_sax 0 points1 point ago

Whatever Homer wants...Homer gets.

[–]GetMendoza 0 points1 point ago

I always forget about that episode where Herb comes back. That's a good one too.

[–]Dantonn 7 points8 points ago

Herb: Lady, you just gave me the idea of a lifetime! How do I thank you?

Woman: Please don't hurt me.

Herb: Consider it done.

[–]Weeblewubble 1 point2 points ago

Omg where did you find this?

[–]GetMendoza 0 points1 point ago

How do you get in the back seat?

[–]totallynotsquidward 0 points1 point ago

Something I just realized: there are skirts on the front wheels, not the rear. So this car either can't steer, or steers with the real wheels. Subtly hilarity. Classic early Simpsons.

[–]Dymodeus -1 points0 points ago

Do they also have a Max Powers?

[–]evanthesquirrel 5 points6 points ago

I got the name off a blow dryer.

[–]Mr_Subtlety 0 points1 point ago

Yet soft, like a nerf ball.
