Saw a yellow one yesterday on the M1. I just couldn't believe it. I thought they were having a laugh!! We pulled up along side to take pictures and the two guys in there were all thumbs up 'an that!! I was like 'yeeehh, nice one boys!!'

Next step up the ladder for you Can-Am girls eh?

(looks like the popular colours are red and yellow. Jeez this case is getting heavy, better rest it biggrin)

That is one ugly mother! Don't people who design things like this have any friends with guts. They need to tell them how it is! It's a turd! An expensive one at that! It may be good on the tech side but that don't mean a thing when it looks that bad!

I'll not be trading in the Can-Am just yet!

Regards Dave

Wow a negative responce from you Dave and you nearly swore as well. Got to admit that is one UGLY BARSTUARD and lucky said he saw one over here in the UK, the style and good taste police obviously weren't on duty when that came through customs. God bless Australia.

That is so very wrong (and I am an Ozzie)... that has to be the most "Okker" marketing I have seen since Australian beer commercials.

FYI in case you come across one on the circuit.

They raced the Skelter’s this year in the targa Tasmania, which is an tarmac rally event. Top tem often includes the likes of 911 and Nissan GTR, Lambos and WRXs. The skelter managed to take fastest stage times on a couple of stages and finished in the top ten this year.

vomit A turd, albeit with a sugar filled centre, but a turd never the less. I bet that if this car did not have a chassis and drive line of such a high caliber they would still be waiting for their first order!
I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but come on, this just isn't right! phone
My wife is of to Oz on Thursday for a three week stint and I am worried that if she is exposed to such monstrosities, she may return even MORE mentally unbalanced than she is now, what can I do about this possible scenario? hehe

I realise that p has already been unavoidably introduced to such atrocities but there are some folk that are already beyond help and I am confident that this individual has already well exceeded his "mind bending moment" and therefore, any concern is unnecessary laugh
