Our friends over at Jalopnik.com have created a glorious list of golden widow-makers in the automotive market. It’s not to say that the cars they have mentioned are unsafe, but rather, these are the cars that we all would love to be seen hurdling through the air in.
You can check out the list of widow-makers and the
full article here.
With childhood heroes such as Speed Racer, Knight Rider, and the brothers Duke, I’m sure that there is a calculated figure that leads to me dying in a ball of flying car parts. Frankly, these days, it’s the only spectacular way to go out. I’m not saying that suicide is sweet, nor are the guys at Jalopnik.com, but if the day were to come, it might as well come while driving a badical ride and eating a steak sandwich.
The 7 cars they say are the best to die in are:
#7 – 1929 Cord Phaeton
#6 – 1951 Mercury “Lead Sled”
#5 – 1993 Volvo 240 Wagon
“Because if you manage to die in one of these — the automotive answer to ‘Why don't they just make the whole airplane the same way they make the black box?’ — you're really trying.”
I don’t know how one would do this. Uh … hmm. Next.
#4 – 1970 Dodge Challenger
#3 – Stolen 1998-Present Ford Crown Victoria Cop Car
#2 – Any racecar, as long as its on the track
#1 – Ferrari Enzo
"This would probably be the most justifiable to die in. The thing is, with the limited amount of production, the strenuous application process, and the vast amount of qualifications needed to own an Enzo, wrecking one better insure death. Wrecking one and living, might cause you to die in a riot of angry enthusiasts. Take this one all the way."
So, there’s the list. Read and see more
