1. Butfore


A word used to dupe unexpecting victims.

Mole - Did you bring the shovel?
Kyle - Check.
Mole - Did you bring the butfore?
Kyle - Whats the butfore?
Mole - For pooping silly.

Its a one off build, or something in early development. The tail lights are 'unfortunate', and it could use a generation or so of massage. But I've certainly seen much worse beasts going down the road.

I saw that car on a small business card that had been handed to a friend who was at the LA auto show about 3-4 years ago. It was some startup supercar yada yada... I remember looking it up and deciding the underpinnings were designed like *#$& and they spent more on the paintjob than on the engineer's salary to design the suspension.


Can't remember the name. Started with a V.

Based on what Schumi said, could it be this?

Vector Motors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vector WX8 prototype

I'm sure it would make the owner cringe, but I thought the same thing... looks like the direction Pontiac was heading at one point.

It looks like it has a Cali manufacturer plate on it. I am still going with either a pre-production or prototype car by Vector. There are a few returns on Google images that look like this car from the front.
