Shamelessly indulging in melodramatic space trash since 1995

Is this the best you can do, Trekkies?

A Prius painted to look like an Enterprise shuttle? Really?

Okay, okay. I know. We’re not that kind of fanblog. Gotta give props to any geek with the guts to proudly display their fannish cred on their car. And we can be sure of one thing: the Prius gets way better gas mileage than any of Road Squadron, so Willie Yee can laugh into his communicator all the way to the bank. (via)

    I like that they went for the boxy shuttle design, which fits a car much better than any weird-ass starship.

    Aww. I think it’s kinda sweet. And the nice thing about Trek designs are that you don’t have to go crazy with the aging and doo-dads to get a car into tribute mode.

    Plus, you’re right. They win on the mileage!

    Checkout my new website dedicated to Star Trek customized motor vehicles:

    It was inspired by Road Squadron.
