On November 11th in La Marque, Texas, Gilbert Harrison accidentally drove his Bugatti Veyron into a marsh after saying that he was distracted by a low flying bird and a dropped cell phone. The Bugatti Veyron is known to be one of the most expensive cars available on the market. Surely driving one into a marsh/lake is not a good thing.
Wow, it’s photos like these that sort of make me miss riding the Subway in NYC and seeing all this crazy stuff that goes on below the streets. Grotesk saw this fairly large Cadillac Escalade power wheel toy on the platform at Union Square. The pictures really speak for themselves. Talk about blocking the entrance/exit…
Toyota is offering this free screensaver download (Mac/PC) to show off the agility of the new Toyota iQ. In the screensaver, the little iQ’s drive around to make up the image of the current time.
Here’s a quick example of how it works. Thanks Ramin!
When I think of Lamborghini cars (of any model), I normally don’t associate them with being able to drive on snow very well. I think it’s because I know that speed and slippery road conditions are just about the worst combination you can put together. Normally the two end up either costing somebody their life or their car.
But that’s all old thinking apparently, because the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 is capable of driving in snowy conditions quite well. So what if the ESP in the car prevents you from going any faster than the regular guy’s car next to you? YOU’RE IN A LAMBORGHINI. Of course, that doesn’t mean you should take your Lamborghini out into the snow. You’ll still have to worry about rocks hidden under the snow and those pesky deer that seem to never get the fact that a car is something you should not jump in front of whenever you feel like it.
This isn’t really all that great of a deal ($289???!!!), but it does look nice. I just can’t imagine myself ever wanting to watch a Blu-ray film so bad that I’d splurge on this especially since it’s just an extra thing I have to carry around. It’d probably be more convenient to rip the damned disc.
