I've designed and built FSAE cars.
I've changed the oil in my lawn mower.
I stayed at a Holiday Inn last night.
Building a car that looks like crap for cheap is hardly an accomplishment. If that is worthy of congratulations, I'm going to uglify everything I own and make it nearly useless. I can do it for a lot less than $3000 as well.
I can absolutely make fun of someone that makes a piece of junk with no aesthetic or performance appeal. It's slow, I guarantee it doesn't handle well, it looks ugly, and its only redeeming quality is that it'll stay in China instead of coming over here and cutting a pedestrian in half.

Can't. I'm busy making a home-made version of a Pagani Zonda in my garage. It will cost $12.92 and do 0-60 eventually.

hahaha...you can weave yarn instead of carbon.....way lighter too lol
I am in the process of building some composite parts for my car (that strangely enough won't end up looking as shitty as any part on the car mentioned in this thread) and I think that I am going to make a yarn hood. That would be goddamn hilarious.
I'm serious. I think I'll use some clear gel coat so you can see what quilted performance is all about.
