maybe this thread should be better off in the humour section than the general discussion. its obvious that the OP posted for the mere novelty of getting a chuckle than a serious discussion.
and for those that may take this thread a little more seriously and query the significance of the position of mecca. The reason for the 'compass' or GPS is that devout muslims pray 5 times a day towards mecca. so by including a compass or gps in a car so that muslims can get their bearings right for their prayers is more of a financial decision that a spiritual one.

Oh I'm well aware, but between some Islamic states not allowing women the right to drive and suicide bombings I could write quite a few off color jokes. To me such is the best way to deal with something like this. Doing a google image search for 'Muslim car' doesn't produce very funny results.
Its a marketing ploy only, its not worthy of serious discussion.
