I saw a plan, a few year back, for a custom sub designed for a mid-size
Ford. I think it was a Thunderbird. 

The article proudly proclaimed that the finished product produced "seat
movement and blurred vision".

And you thought driving while talking on a cell phone was dangerous.

Some time ago I helped my young next door neighbour install a PA and
speakers in his car. It used power cables as thick as my fingers. A week
later I asked him how his stereo was. He proudly proclaimed that it had
caused his rear view mirror to fall off the windscreen. So there is a new
measure of sound pressure level, the rear view mirror. He didn't seem
worried about how it sounded, maybe he couldn't hear it.

Playing with car stereo myself.
These guys have the whole sound pressure thing down.

Windows re-enforced, doors screwed down submarine style.
NO ONE IN THE CAR. Remotely controlled.
