    yeah, it'd look very 80's businessman.

    An uncle had a brand new Cadillac in the early 90's which had a telephone between the seats. That was cheesiest thing I've ever seen in a car.

    I have seen cheesier, pimp my ride put a coffee maker in an 81 trans am. at the end of the episode i was really mad about how they did that car, also there was a chandeleir in it. and it was a bandit car and they just painted it grey with a bird on the hood.
