Malaysia’s state-owned carmaker Proton has announced plans to form a partnership with companies in Iran and Turkey to develop a new ‘Islamic’ car targeted at Muslim drivers. Some of the unique features being proposed include a compass that points to Mecca and dedicated storage for a copy of the Koran and a headscarf.
There’s been no official word on when the car will be released or where it will be built, only that it will be a global model. According to the BBC, Malaysian dignitaries recently visited Iran to meet with the local officials who originally suggested the idea.
Proton is suffering from flagging sales and an oversupply of vehicles in its homeland and is desperate for a volume export program. Officials are also in ongoing talks with Volkswagen over a possible partnership, however no progress has been made for more than six months now.

I don't see what's so funny about it. If there's a market for it, then why not? I think it's a great idea, I wish I had thought of the same thing.
LOL@Kane, though.

Was thinking it would have a storage space or something for a bomb.

But a car targeted solely at caucasians would be sued until there was nothing left.
THAT'S EQUALITY, INNIT.

Caucasian isn't a religion. How would you develop a car for white peoplez?

Or something like that. I'm just being racist for the sake of it now.

I'd totally buy it though if it wasn't Islamic, and didn't have all those islamic gadgets in it and was manufactured in Europe by Audi

Someone needs to build a HG car, here are my ideas:
-a padded light tube container that stops them from breaking in the trunk.
-a camera holder above the rear view mirror
-a separate tank you can fill with petrol to be used later on
-rocket launcher from the front
-a non-breakable windscreen so people can get hit by the car without it obscuring further driving
-rocket launcher from the back
-something on the roof that can hold a ladders, trollys, a plastic table and possibly, a group member
-no speedo (they're for pussies)
-lcd screens plus dvd player for watching stuff (mostly pr0n)
-exactly 12 seats--no more, no less. Why? because I said so cunt.
-exactly 6 wheels. Why? see reason above
-cup holders, A/C and electric tinted windows (of course)
-extendable ropes from the back so people can grab them
-those wheels that look like they're spinning--even when they're not
-license plates that can change with a push of a button (to thwart cops and angry shopkeepers or just to confuse people at traffic lights).
-an engine that sounds really loud, but doesn't make the car go much faster (cuts cost of fuel)
-a stereo that has more bass than anything else audible
-wireless internet connector for watching stuff (mostly pr0n)
-high beams capable of lighting an entire football field
-a megaphone capable of harassing pedestrians 5kms away with prerecorded taunts in a robotic voice (mostly consisting of racial slurs and sexual innuendos)
-a spray job featuring a naked man kissing another naked man
-And most importantly, a breath tester/drug tester to gauge each members' state of inebriation
Fuck the muslim car. Mine's better and you know it is.

lol I just checked that thread now...I still say mines better. The homoeroticism cannot be justified without the rest. And that's a fact. I mean, there's gay and then there's balls to the wall awesome gay (as Liam would put it).
Plus, mines got rockets and a robotic voice that teases black people.

So...like..is it gunna have a built-in timed bomb too? or?
17 November 2007, 20:35 UTC#21

17 November 2007, 20:47 UTC#22
hahaha a camel rack. that'd be deadly.
