Hey this is no joke but the notion of active branding is not that far-fetched.
I have a perfect semicircle matching the arc of the top of the left exhaust tip branded on to my left leg.
But I would say that people can have far worse things branded on to them. At least I'm branded with something from a top-flight brand like BMW.
Now just to get out my tin snips or hacksaw so as to circumcise that exhaust pipe so that it will not attack me again!!!!

Wow, two half moon BMW exhaust burn marks on your calf, how cool is that! 
You could always pass it off as a near miss with a Great White while you were surfing! Or just get a BMW tattoo above it to finish the job.

Have you found out why they put the little orange emergency release handle in the trunk yet?
what release handle? for the trunk or the gas tank?
I guess for when you get locked in the trunk you can open it... or the person YOU lock in the trunk can open it.
