However, your Z will simply become too aerodynamic and may open up a wormhole through the fabric of space-time. I'd suggest just garaging it indefinitely after this modification, for everybody's sake.

Worked well for this guy:

Speaking of, I only let Michael J Fox make my martinis, because I like them shaken, not stirred.

If you need side mirrors, you're driving way too slow!!! "What's a behind me, dosen't a matter"

Might as well take off my rear view mirror after the side mirrors, they block my damn view, who cares about what's behind!!

Well I'm driving a Z, So naturally everything is behind......

You should get rid of your headlights as well, they are completely useless most of the time too... until you need them...then you remember why every single car on the road has them. Just like side mirrors...

I wasn't being serious, it was from a thread that a guy posted about getting smaller cf mirrors to apparently make the car more aerodynamic. Funny responses though
