This Ain't Your Car: Someone's Going to Pay For This Chrysler Sebring

Out Of Tune Chrysler Sebring Convertible, San Francisco

Have you ever wondered if you've over-modified your car, crossed some boundary of good taste?


Thank goodness, this ain't your car.

Yesterday the gang at SportsCarMonitor showed you a homemade Batpod spotted rolling the mean streets of, uh, Palo Alto. Today, also from the streets of San Francisco (sort of), we bring you this abomination, which we nabbed in the heart of SoMa, perpetrating some Saw IV-style horrors on what used to be a Chrysler Sebring convertible.

On first look, the maimed Chrysler strikes us with some cool details, like flat-black paint (courtesy Krylon) and those eyelidded taillamps. Then we took a closer look while grabbing some iPhone 4 pics, and simultaneously clutching our gut. Did they have a garage sale at 1313 Mockingbird Lane? Did Roger Rabbit tried to turn his rental into a '55 Chevy? Or is this some car-genome project gone horribly awry, just like that Adrian Brody movie, only minus Adrian Brody?

If you own this project in progress, we want to know--seriously--what inspired it. Once we know the cause, together we can start the search for a cure.

Got a badly tuned car? Send it to "This Ain't Your Car" at desk [at] highgearmedia (dot) com. If we run it, we promise not to use your name and to blur out license plates to protect the innocent.

  1. It's actually very unprofessional and a bit pathetic to openly slam someone's ride this. It is not yours, so who cares? If they like it, that's all that matters especially considering THEY paid for it, not YOU. I'm guessing you were the one in jr. high standing around your locker making fun of people's clothes, huh?

    Bad stuff?

  2. No, it's not neutral journalism. However, the level of tackiness displayed in this auto modification (not to mention the dubious decision to purchase a Sebring in the first place) is going to be a magnet for scorn and derision, vocal or not. If you blatantly draw attention to yourself, don't be surprised if the result is less than overwhelmingly positive.

  3. What you got is 2015 Chrysler's camouflage test car.

  4. Ummm...so this isn't an improvement on the Sebring? Some said Van Gogh was crazy...oh wait he was...but try buying one of his paintings. Automobiles have been a means of self expression for decades. Good or bad. To use the world's most bland convertible for his/her palette is priceless. This user has turned a Sebring into something Chrysler couldn't do, make it memorable.
