The shiny, attractive appearance of a car is one of its best-selling features. However, not every vehicle’s destiny is to remain like this. Automobile lovers around the world are finding many new ways to add a special touch to them. Sure, customizing your ride can be harmless fun… until it no longer resembles a vehicle. Tacky stickers, unorthodox colors, and questionable modifications can transform your car into a vehicle of fears rather than dreams.
A Facebook group called “PoSC” is a place where people gather to post their sightings of the most bizarre-looking vehicles on the streets. Enjoy steering through this list of some of the funniest ones that will make you question your knowledge about cars.

1940s cartoon car. Watch the Disney cartoon MOTOR MANIA and we may see one!
Load More Replies...The origins of car modifications can be traced back to the 1920s–1930s in California, when “Hot Rodding” became a thing. It’s a transformation of a vehicle to be lighter and faster for racing. In the beginning, those were old cars that had been stripped of all nonessential parts like bumpers, windshields, and hoods and had modified or new engines to be more powerful.
Eventually, it became a legitimate sport. Car clubs began to form, and race tracks were built so that people could show off their customized builds. Interestingly, the “Hot Rod” races were done in a straight line, as previously they were done illegally on city streets or straight roads. The racers would start at the same point and time after a given signal. The first car to cross the finish line became the winner. This gave way to the colorful culture of automotive modifications that we know today.
It's a LeMons racer. The tow point is required for competition use.

I really hope that someone has made Liam Neeson aware of this car, as I'm sure he would find it pretty funny.
"I work for a very specialized part of The Company, under the name of Nismo. You have taken the wrong car. I possess a very particular set of skills, skills which will allow me to locate you, track you down, and adjust your chassis until you barely avoid scraping the pavement. I will bore and stroke your cylinders, and swap out your camshafts. I will shorten your transmission throws, replace your seats, and jam a roll cage into your frame. When I am finished, you will be unrecognizable. You have been warned."

Not all mods are bad or tasteless, they can be renewed and brought back to life by someone who's willing to put in some work. Here are some popular and unharmful ways a vehicle can be modified:
- Repainting your car can make the biggest difference, but if you don’t enjoy making such long-term commitments, there is an alternative. Wrapping your car in vinyl film offers you the freedom to choose any color you’d like, provides protection, and can be removed whenever.
- A set of sports seats looks cool and can be more comfortable and supportive.
- Raising or lowering your vehicle’s height is also a great way to change the look of your car, and it might make your ride more comfortable.
- Changing out your rear and tail lights can also add detail and interest to your vehicle.
Before customizing your ride, it’s a good idea to check your country's guidelines for vehicles to avoid fines and safety issues.
I actually saw a cop almost do this over an emergency call back when I worked the gas station
Load More Replies...I did this at a shell station. Heard a loud Snap and POP! Looked out my rearview and saw it dangling. I only drove 10 feet and a guy ran up behind me and put it back. He could see me panicking. He went "Shhh" with his finger and waved me away. I hauled a*s. Never caught up with me luckily.

Now That's A Statement. Not Necessarily A Bad One Considering The Ribbon
Why exactly do people like to pimp up their cars? The main reason is to improve performance and make it go faster. Also, it helps to stand out in the crowd of ordinary-looking cars. By improving its fuel efficiency, it can save you money. Additionally, it’s a great hobby to express your personality and bond with other enthusiasts. Lastly, show-quality vehicles can enter competitions and win cash prizes, or they can be sold for a profit.

It looks like a cute thing for kids... HEAR ME OUT, When I was young we had a van that worked for a few months. For some reason, we didn't use it anymore, but we kids LOVED it, we would sit inside it and play like it was a ship or our "camper" and we loved it

I don't think it's a Demon . . . Hellcat, maybe? (Your point is still valid).

According to a survey done in the US, the most prioritized features when purchasing a vehicle are fuel efficiency and safety. Interestingly, only 32% seem to assign greater importance to the appearance of their new car. Prioritizing quality and comfort also ranks higher than design.

"... Fine Last Ride" I wouldn't be so sure. This is a Maserati, so, considering its reliability, there is a good chance you won't make it to your own funeral.
I've seen models of this at the Profesional Car Society model show.
Seems expensive whatever the currency is (except Zimbabwean dollars).
I Don't Even Know What To Say Here. Please Help
If not done correctly, mods can not only ruin the look of your car, but also cause safety issues. Tinting your headlights and windows creates a more uniform and aggressive look, but it can affect visibility for the driver and others, causing unpleasant accidents. Covering seats may also pose a danger, as some of them now have airbags inside. In case of an accident, they may prevent them from deploying correctly. Moreover, inadequate wiring and faulty installations of aftermarket parts can lead to malfunctions. Modifications can greatly interfere with or disrupt a delicate vehicle system, so it’s best to be knowledgeable in this area before committing to customizing.

What do you mean "look"? Tesla's motto appears to be: It isn't finished yet, but we'll sell it anyway.
Load More Replies...The only logical explanation for how this thing made it all the way to a production line is that Elon drew a picture of a "truck" when he was like 4 years old and said he would make it when he's older, and a bully laughed at him for it, so this entire project was just to prove the bully wrong.
And he's not self aware enough to grasp that it proves the bully was right.
Load More Replies...I can imagine little 5-year old Elon running to his mother and saying "Look mommy I drew a pickup truck!" And that's the origin of his cybertruck.
Definitely sounds like a 5 year old named it, too 😂

Load More Replies...Amazing how high they jacked up the body but still manage to have almost no clearance.
Poorly executed paint jobs and additional body parts can not only damage your car but also make it less appealing to potential buyers. Customizations that speed up the car can affect insurance payments, adding to the general cost of maintenance and making it a less attractive purchase. A loud exhaust will inevitably decrease your vehicle’s value, as not everyone enjoys driving a car that everyone can hear from a mile away. Unless you’re selling a modified build to a fellow enthusiast, some of these advancements can shorten your list of buyers and decrease your profit.

It’s easy to get tied up in the world of cars, especially if you’re just a beginner. Automotive blogs stress the importance of planning your projects in advance. Conducting research about the best cars to alter and how is a smart thing to do before starting. Having the right car and your modifications planned can save you a lot of time, money, and nerves. It’s also important to be realistic; some alterations might not do what you expect them to. It’s best to be sufficiently informed and determined about your first customizations before you end up with a vehicle like this guy's…

Load More Replies...this is ignorant. Its clear they were hit. The person who hit them may not have insurance and the owner of the car may be waiting to get it fixed.
That car is never getting fixed. It's being driven by somebody who has no better options.
Load More Replies...There is also the problem of filing an insurance claim on an older vehicle. The insurance company could write you a check for the "fair market value" which isn't necessarily very much and leave you standing there without a car and without enough money to buy a decent one.
Probably does have insurance. But the insurance company totaled the car because the cost of repair is greater than the value of the car...or so they claim. Then they want to cut you a check for $800, the value they put on the car, like that's going to get you a good car and back on the road again. So the driver said, F**k it, I'll drive it like this. I speak from experience.
I've done the same thing. You gotta do what you gotta do. It isn't pretty, but if it gets you to work, drive it. Make sure no parts are falling off first.

As some of these are just bad taste, or ridiculous, other should not be in here. All the vehicles that have obviously been in an accident or damaged, we should not be judging or shaming. Times are hard, and car repairs are very expensive. Many people cannot afford the body work needed to fix the cars, and they do what they have to do get by. And for those saying "that is what insurance is for", well, yes and no. If you don't have full coverage, you can end up responsible for the repairs. Like, it your car got hit while it was parked and the person who hit it took off. That would fall under comprehensive insurance, which many people don't have (many states only require liability) and you are stuck with the bill. Or, you were hit by someone who is uninsured. If you don't have uninsured driver on your package, guess what? Yep, you are responsible. And even if you have the proper insurance, a lot of people have high deductibles so they can afford the monthly premiums. So, you still need to come up with $1500 to get the repairs done, and a lot of people don't have that kind of money just laying around.
100% this. A couple of the pictures appear to just be indicative of a lack of ability to fix or buy a new car. BP is really getting petty with some of this stuff.
