I was just looking at some Xevious's images and this one almost made me fall out of my chair laughing.

Sport Compact Car.

They said that a guy came to the offices with a Sentra.. said he had to beat his friends <insert other, faster car here> or he would forever suck. He had no money for go-fast parts, so they did the only reasonable thing they could- add lightness!

They got a crapload of angry letters from idiots who actually believe that the editors would do that to someone's car (well, maybe they would) or that any retard would let them. The car was, of course, a demo that had to be exported or destroyed after a certain amount of time. SCC got to take care of it the second way.
