Cruising the streets of Oshawa ON today is a white Pontiac Aztek on chrome dubs, with white Chevy SS badges (very tasteful) and twin Firebird-style hood scoops that probably don't actually scoop much of anything because they're mounted just behind one of those black plastic bug-deflector things. Oh, and it has dealer plates, in case you want to score the automotive deal of a lifetime and impress all your friends.

Is Oshawa small enough that you could hunt down this beast and photograph it?
Hmmm... if it has dealer plates, you could probably scope out all the dealerships and find out who the lucky source of this original wonder is. Oshawa's not that small - population of about 152,000.
I appreciate the (presumably morbid) interest, FGC, but what gave you the idea I WANT to see this object again? FWIW, it doesn't seem to be on AutoTrader. Tell you what: if it rolls past me again, I will try to track it to its lair. But before I tell you, you'll have to sign a release or something in the interests of public decency.
Oh, BTW: also spotted today in Oshawa: a white Bricklin.

Oh, no presumption at all on your part..it's entirely morbid. 
I'm a freak when it comes to how badly the Marching Morons attempt to "modify" their appliances.

Ah, I understand that such a vision could render an enthusiast so unbalanced that they are no longer unable to function in the society at large..but yet, I consider it a task that we should all persue. My old SCCA buddies & I actually turned it into the "World's Ugliest Car" contest years ago. IIRC, the last winner was a Chevy Citation 4dr on four space-saver spares with crash damage on the front and rear, and a big bumper sticker on what was left of the rear bumper proclaiming that "Islam is THE WAY!" 2nd place was a stock Pontiac Aztec.

Thanx, dude...I think what caught me was your description of the scoops behind the deflector. That, I want to see....
