Certainly isn't one of the BMW Art Cars, the M1 they did was by Andy Warhol and is certainly in a museum.
It's Guy Ritchie.

What the hell were you expecting... Inspector-fucking-Morse?
Surprised? Why? It's the only exciting movie out right now that appeals to the teen and early 20s crowd! We should remember that the film industry exists to make money, and this is the kind of franchise that does exactly that. Not to mention the huge advertising campaign that has gone with it, repeats of the previous movies on TV, etc....
Right, I'm going to say this here... Formula One is the worst run series on the planet, and every manufacturer should pull out. Why?

Because there are no North American races (barring a Vegas race, of course). Now, correct me if I am wrong, but North America constitutes a MAJOR portion of sales for Mercedes, Honda, Toyota, BMW, Ferrari, and others. Some of these guys are out of F1, and I would love to see the rest follow. It's sickening to me to think that the organizers of F1 could be so short sighted and selfish. Truth is, there's too much money involved for the whole thing to end, but I think it could be close. Let's have a Vegas race, bring back Long Beach or another California race (no, not Laguna Seca, unless you want to see deaths come back to F1), and Montreal, who were robbed of the race for unjust reasons (What, something wrong with the facility, Bernie?)
Huh? Basterds? Inglourious?

How are you a writer if you can't spell properly?
Excellent, just in time for the small-time auto maker movement... take a couple million in startup financing, hire a couple of young, talented out-of-work designers, and contract the big auto makers to build it. Some sense could eventually emerge out of the auto industry... and the big names will be nothing but OEM manufacturers for smaller makes.
No replacement for displacement... Stupid GT-R. Nissan is ruining that car by being elitist bastards about it. IT'S A CHEAP SPORTSCAR WITH BIG BOOST NOT A $200,000 GERMAN ROAD MACHINE.
Re: price bumps.

The dollar just dropped to 85 cents US, so expect car prices to go up in Canada...

Also, it may have taken a long time for Scion to come here, but it's not like they knew it was going to be a success. The brand is profitable in the US, so now that it's established it's time to bring it to Canada.
And besides, we get lots of cool vehicles here long before the US does... Nissan X-Trail, Smart, etc etc.
This is partly the fault of North American sponsors and organizers. F1 is big business in Europe and Asia, as far as advertising goes. If there were four races in Canada and the US there would be no question of removing one of them. Why not a New York GP with an amazing street course set up in one of the boroughs? Why not bring back Long Beach as an F1 venue? Surely in the hundreds of millions that is spent on these teams there is a bit in the budget to bring some action to this part of the world?
There should be more public outcry, too. We lost a CART race here in Vancouver due to (a miniscule amout of) complaints about noise etc - nobody stood up for the race, and the legacy that was the Molson Indy Vancouver is now gone, soon to be ugly towers. Bernie needs to go, we need a North American megalomaniac to run the show!
Haha, awesome. The screenshots are for a Mini just like mine.

At least I know it will be compatible with my car!


/feigning stupidity.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
