I am offended, by the lack of scale in the picture, the fact BB isn't a VW, and the advancement of Mexican stereotypes.

Though I'm not sure which offends me more.

Have Bumble Bee in Detroit and it will be much more accurate.

There's a stereotype about Mexicans where your VW gets stolen, pimped out, and returned as a hot sporty car?

And also, this pic is probably 4 or 5 years old.

No, the stereotype that Mexicans steal cars and make them excessively gaudy because they are ignorant fools.

Why would someone making cars gaudy lead anyone to the conclusion that said person was an ignorant fool? Personally, I subscribe to the Louis C.K. system of stereotypes and believe that Mexicans are made of candy.

Someone on this site has that image on their sig (I forget who though)

ROFL!

..............

To be honest, it's not really funny.

I'd say mildly amusing.

i kind of like the car

I'll give ya that. It IS a very nice automobile.
Wouldn't mind driving that Stig-style.

If I was a broken down VW and woke up as a sports car I wouldn't complain.

If I fell asleep as a human and woke up as a transforming sports car I wouldn't complain...
sigh, one can wish...
