Gina's Mock Cars Volume 2






BMW 7 Series (previous generation pre-facelift)
Yes I know many will probably defend this co-star of The O.C. and Taxi (starring Queen Latifah), it still is the best selling 7 Series yet, mechanically it does everything right and a lot of its design features has been copied by other motoring manufacturers; but God dammit Chris Bangle should've known better! Proof that one can put a BMW badge on pretty much anything and it will sell.

Daihatsu Move
There isn't a market on this earth that liked it, why they even bothered exporting it out of Japan is beyond me. Underpowered, unattractive and unstable; this was been Daihatsu showing us they have a sense of humour, not that anyone asked.

Mazda Demio
I personally believe this is the model that was the cause of Mazda's big turn around. After spawning something this dull Mazda must have done some reflection and realized the severe lack of life and excitement in their range. 1-2-6 the rotary engine was redeveloped, a few designers with an appetite for sex were employed and the RX-8 and Mazda6 was unleashed; much to the delight of 323 owners everywhere. We owe you a debt of gratitude Mazda Demio (you boring bastard).

Nissan Tiida Sedan
Imagine this conversation if you will:
Guy1: I bought a new car!
Guy2: Me too! What did you get?
Guy1: The new Corolla, not the most exciting purchase but I'm loving it so far. How about you?
Guy2: Something similar to yours actually...
Guy1: A Cerato? A Civic?
Guy2: No...
Guy1: A Jetta or maybe a Focus?
Guy2: Close but not quite...
(18 minutes later)
Guy1: I've run out of ideas! What the hell did you buy!?
Guy2: A Nissan Tiida.
Guy1: Oh...
Can you imagine how heavily Guy1 is judging Guy2? The current Corolla is a step in the right direction if you compare it with the previous generation Corolla, the Tiida is SO not a styling improvement over the Almera. This government and rental favourite induces narcolepsy. This car makes the current Corolla look stunning. I think I've only ever seen this bulbous-assed automobile in white and a green that only works on the current Fiesta. Using the word automobile is like using the word fellatio instead of blow job. The Tiida is so boring you can't help but call it an automobile.
