It must've been the stripes.

Not as bad as homodores with Boss bulge.

Haha fair enough. Did the stripes work with the flow of the Aurion/Camry?

Lucky for you, or you'd be in a spot of bother! :P (just kidding mate! )

If I saw an Aurion or Camry with GT stripes, I reckon I'd need new upholstery (if I was in my car) or new pants, as my bladder would release simultaneously with my laughter.

Some people should not own cars, or even a license.

I have seen a couple of camrys with GT stripes as well. I think the local toyota dealer must get stripes cheap or something because every used falcon they sell also has GT stripes regardless of what model it is. Which I guess works out well for them because instead of selling a BA Falcon XT they can market it as a 'BA Falcon GT replica'.
