The worse part is the clashing colors between the red body and the purple 'fear this' plate

This Corvette is a real eye catcher; everyone looks so if you’re a shy person, well there is always a (Toyota Echo) for you to buy instead.


has a sense of humor, anyway...

I agree with the minority here...for an off roader, it ain't bad at all...doesn't matter what body ya put on a project like that...

Don't mistake being shy for hiding one's face in embarrassment. Suddenly a Toyota Echo sounds desirable.
