    My sister (A non car enthusiast) went to Hawaii & knowing my love of cars she was nice enough to send me pics of cars she found interesting. So these are cars in the USA that a non-car enthusiast found interesting:

    I personally find pickups interesting. It's not a current thing to see lands boats in France.

    Just to know, do you guys pronunce "403" Four-o-three or Four thousand three ?

    It would be either "4-0-3" or "Four Hundred and three" :)

    For me it would depend on the context. So it would be "Four Hundred and three" unless I had some reason to do it otherwise.

    For example:
    400 + 3 = "Four Hundred and three"
    Peugeot 403 = "Peugeot 4-0-3"

    Indeed, those and Japanese chromed little trucks with gigantic bumpers and transformers looks are craziest things of truck tuning scene, but probably there are even more WTF things some place on this planet, really awesome craziness and probably even a little stupid :)

    Update: Those Brazilian trucks are not much different from this, scale is just bigger:

    In Italian, all Peugeot names are traditionally read as pure numbers, so it's "Quattrocentotre" (Four hundred and three).
