What does a Peugeot 205 'Kid' mean? Does it have extra cup holders,
Scoth-Guard carpet, and a baby seat anchor? Does the VW 'Bon Jovi' Golf
come equipped with a better stereo and special compartment for hair care
essentials? And how about the Mitsubishi Mirage 'Tram-Line'? It
probably does get knocked out of alignment quickly and I would maybe
rather take the train, but no, none of these titles seem to relate to the features of the car
whatsoever. It's only a sticker that appears to have been ironed on by a disparate car salesman in the mid-90's who forgot to put a number in the GTi, LX-i, and DX boxes.
I never ran out of examples, only out of interest in looking like a creeper taking close-ups of people's cars while they were walking towards me with groceries. I don't know nearly enough German to talk my way out of a situation like that.
Enjoy some of the questionably special editions spotted this time around!

I always thought it was odd that European brands thought it was cool to add English words like "Teen" or "Young". I think VW had special editions Golfs named after several a few American cities. As hard as I've looked I have yet to find the "Detroit" Edition.
ReplyDeleteThat was the hubcap delete edition ;-)
ReplyDeleteI was just hoping that with 'Teen' and 'Young' they had gotten the translation a little worse. Like 'Inexperienced' or 'Fetus'.
