Doesn't matter how it's meant. I think it's a funny nickname, just like I think clown car is a funny nickname for a Mini.

What is his word for a Cayman? I forgot.

I've just watched that DOOPID clip 5 times to try find the 2.20 BuzzBomb and it has completely passed over my head - could someone explain? Is it the buzz sound/gesture made by that intergalactic gay space clown?

I think he is funny.

every forum needs a guy like him, to laugh at, to hate, to enjoy.

Hey its only a car forum, not the UN!!

Hey I never connected it to the Dead Kennedys!!

Thats one of my all time fav bands. I saw them at the Whiskey in LA back in the day!

Jello was awesome.

I love the 5th element! Great flick.

Well, by now you know it's a nick-name for an Elise, created and used by one particular member, who tends to irritate a few people here....and that rather than ignore him, they choose to follow him into many threads he posts in and every thread he starts so they can instigate trouble and criticize and make fun of his jargon and then some moderator has to come in and clean things up...but they're not bitter....no, not at all....[/endofrant]

British_Marques · 06-19-2009, 02:52 PM

I must be totally naive then, we have been calling the little Honda and Mitsu ricers cars with soup can mufflers buzzbombs for the last ten years or so. Not the Elise, even though it has a four popper toyo motor.

My Buzzbomb was my eighth Lotus. Off-loaded her after almost two years. Fun little car. Still have an Esprit.

Maybe you should stick to ordering "custom hoodies" for The Crazy Rabid here?
