  • jggube, on 06/03/2008, -4/+18The Reventon looks hawt!
  • netburnr, on 06/04/2008, -4/+17I can't believe these retards had the balls to put the SmartForTwo on this list.....
    • coyote1284, on 06/04/2008, -0/+3I can't believe they said "it's the perfect replacement for that road-hogging SUV." Sure, if you are using the SUV to just get yourself from place to place. Try taking your family around town in a Smart car. The Hummer HX is a better option for families from this page.
      /FWIW I drive a VW Passat sedan
  • ferrariman60, on 06/04/2008, -4/+29Buried, what a lame list.
    • ZER0JACK, on 06/04/2008, -0/+4It's outrageous!
    • htan, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2a list of 10 of the "most outrageous cars" with 2 pics = lame

      yahoo must be trying to save bandwidth costs to anticipate masses of shareholder lawsuits
    • normalkid0615, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1many of those cars are 2009 like the rolls royce.
    • lfroker, on 06/04/2008, -0/+3the veyron and cxt are 06 wtf. wow yahoo sucks
  • jasonliman, on 06/04/2008, -0/+43Is it really hard to include the other seven car pictures? Or the rest are too ugly to show?
  • shaggy4dog, on 06/04/2008, -0/+14Seriously, the new Hummer...WTF??
    • Rassa, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1Is it still just a concept? If so I don't' see it being made with the news last night that GM is closing 4 SUV/Truck plants and is looking to sell the hummer brand.
    • Jektal, on 06/04/2008, -1/+1I kind of like it... A lot better than the H2/H3 at least
  • Monty7, on 06/04/2008, -5/+1The link doesn't work! WTF!
  • sladek, on 06/04/2008, -0/+29Half of them don't have pics :(
  • Anewman87, on 06/04/2008, -1/+7tesla roadster FTW!
    • jamdogg, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1Thats the only one I googled. Looks like a lotus and in theory you could charge it up with pedal-power, wind power, cow ***** power. Awesome.
  • acu2005, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10They should at least choose new cars, Bugatti Veyron and the International CTX? Hello 2006
  • jiqiren, on 06/04/2008, -4/+1I've been on the waiting list for a Smart Fortwo for over 2 years. What a bunch of crap... Glad the deposit was only $100.
  • webkami, on 06/04/2008, -2/+7OK, this was lame!
  • username484767, on 06/04/2008, -2/+3lame
  • cslawren, on 06/04/2008, -1/+2Bugatti FTW
  • lewzer, on 06/04/2008, -0/+8MOAR PICS!
  • Stemp, on 06/04/2008, -2/+2«The Tesla is actually the world's first fully electric supercar.»

    What about the Venturi Fétish ?

    • elnerdo, on 06/04/2008, -2/+2Not super enough.
    • vialator, on 06/04/2008, -0/+3Neither of them are supercars, by any definition. Sports cars maybe, but they're in no way SUPERcars. Top speeds of under 150mph and power figures put to shame by most family saloons are nothing to get excited over.
  • curseoflou, on 06/04/2008, -3/+1i thought these cars were supposed to be outrageous. imo the only thing outrageous is the fuel consumption of some of these cars. empty tank in 12 mins!
  • UpwardMoses, on 06/04/2008, -0/+9what the hell, 33MPG?? For a car that size, that is pretty damn outrageous.
    • grumpyrain, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2It is appalling.
      The BMW 123D coupe gets 45MPG and still puts out 150KW.
    • sebnukem, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1The American market version is different from the original European car. The US car is heavier, bigger to accommodate the butts I guess, looks more conservative and has a 20% worse gas mileage.
  • rpieszak, on 06/04/2008, -1/+1DO WANT!
  • Gbobrt4, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2WTB Lamborghini pst.
  • ridgepj, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1Some more pictures would be nice.
  • macwac, on 06/04/2008, -1/+2All outside my budget!

    Someone please find an article containing the most outrageous and --affordable-- cars of 2008, cheers!
    • wacomwacoff, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1The Smart FourTwo is only $11,000. One of the cheapest cars on the market!
    • inthe80s, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1and the Scion isn't going to be much over $16K or so either. if you can't afford that, you can't afford a 2008 car anyways.
    • htan, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1you sound like the type to send letters to top gear, flaming them for testing expensive cars
  • Zebceponaf, on 06/04/2008, -0/+4Y'know, this wouldn't have been a bad list if all the cars had pictures.

    Buried as lame, cause were all a bunch of lazy bastards.
  • stigma, on 06/04/2008, -0/+7Buried. Useless without pics for all cars.
  • Vraja, on 06/04/2008, -0/+5the smart's 33mpg is crap. most European cars do more then that, with a bigger, more powerful engine! Most Audi petrol's can do 40+mpg with around a 2.0 liter engine..
  • stareD, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1Hummer??? Haha, piece of crap!
  • cardinalgill, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2Year of the Electric Vehicles baby!
    http://greenhome.huddler.com/products/category/ele ...

    I'm a Tesla fanboy...it's pathetic.
  • Spamzfolife, on 06/04/2008, -2/+0Omg the Bugatti Veyron look F***ing hot!, i want one.
  • zhlimnick, on 06/04/2008, -0/+4where are the damn pics?!
  • shoediva, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2Wow it would be nice to be able to afford one of those cars..........or at least the gas money
  • EwMo, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2Need moar pix.
  • Hijack32, on 06/04/2008, -0/+2The Bugatti seems to be a monster of a car
  • nydwarf, on 06/04/2008, -0/+1That Hummer looks like it'd probably drain all the gas left in the world in one day. Whoever is making these cars though should be put up against the wall.
  • Johnn0706, on 06/11/2008, -0/+0Awesome designs, really cool Automobiles, with gas price is on the rise and more and more eco friendly cars coming up...It's really interesting to watch out for new models. My vote is for "Lamborghini Reventon"
