In some parts of Asia, people still have this barbaric conception that whatever they put in their mouth directly imbues them with a particular characteristic. Tiger bits, shark fins and little seahorses are all consumed in the false hope of gaining power, virility and health.
I really can't blame them though, because I'd eat just about any animal if it made me rich enough to buy a Jag. Plus, all women kind of do it too, putting everything from plant extract to snail slime on their faces.
What I can't live with is automakers thinking wild animals can bestow their attributes to automobiles, like in this Indian Hyundai commercial for the i10 hatchback, which according to a tiger is absolutely "graaaaaand".
It's a bit like that Taylor Swift meets the screaming goat video.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
