Spanish: Caracol

Type: Slang

Literal Meaning: snail

Meaning: a car driven by an idiot

¡Mira ese caracol! El dueño se cree la gran cosa porque tiene un auto con placas del norte, pero mi auto es más bonito que el suyo! (Se le llama “caracol” al auto porque él que lo maneja es un “baboso”. (Look at that "snail"! The owner thinks he’s so hot because he has a car from the North, but my car is nicer than his! [They call the car a snail because in Spanish the word slug [“baboso”], which is inside the snail, is slang for “idiot.”])
