But that's still nothing compared to the huge alphanumeric designators of the olden days:
"Ford Fiesta 1.6 GTI LS 4x4 Sunny Hedgehog Edition"

That didn't even match the designation! I got an "xle" car and was curious what's it meant. You ready for this bullshit? Executive luxury edition! It's the fucking base model! The top end model is called the touring. Like in what world does that make sense‽
