    This thread is supposed to talk about joke cars or what you think are joke cars. Examples are:
    • BMW Isetta
    • Tata Nano
    • Toyota Prius
    • Pontiac Aztek
    • Nissan Cube and Juke
    You don't have to use those examples, but just ones that most of us would talk about.

    Mine's the PT Cruiser. It might as well be a inspiration or a rip-off of the Plymouth Prowler.

    you know you failed when the only thing your car is remembered for is exploding

    The BMW Isetta because it's as slow as a slow-mo shot.

    How hasn't anyone said the Reliant Robin yet? That car is a complete joke. The only thing people remember from it was that Top Gear episode, especially people not from Britain.

    I agree, but threads can't operate as similar as automobiles.

    Any 3-wheeler, actually. Also, the Fiat 1-2 HP.

    I guess it is pretty cute, but is useless for cargo and is pretty unsafe. I even have one is diecast form.

    Yeah, it is, but it's slower than any of the transportation at the time.

    on topic, I'd say the I3 is a joke:

    what's attractive about that? BMW could have gone for such a better look? Why do electric cars need to look so weird?

    Test some other cars, they would also catch fire.
