i wonder if they can be recycled or are made from any recycled material? & how well do they survive against the lug nuts being removed & refitted regularly?
i can imagine they will only be for specialized vehicles, like aston martins, Mseries bmw, etcetc, & then they will probably team up with a tyre manufacture like michelin & it will only be made in a metric size
if you were so close to him, rather than be a voyeuristic speculator, why didnt you lean over & ask him? then it could be 100% confirmed or washed down the toilet. from what i see it the photo, it looks like some electronic device, with little things that go in your ears,, so i am going to guess that it plays music of some sort,, other than that, the foto tells nothing.
(& how can you tell he is a hottie? the other side of his face could be all mangled & f**ked up)

what does it need the thingy to carry the head phones,, why wouldnt they be in your ears? it will be difficult to hear them down there! i wouldnt wear one if they paid me 50$,, i have pockets to carry my money, cell phone, mp3, shit nowadays, everything you could possibly want to carry is stored in a cellphone, music, maps, (not far before money). i still see travellers using fanny(bum) bags, & they still look stupid,, it screams "steal something off me, i have a bag full of goodies"
snob? hmpf! well to call me a snob implied that i am of class, & dont like toys of a lower class :) so, thanx.
in your opinion,, me, grow up? ahhh, well thats fair,, i remember my peers telling me the same thing 5 - 10 years ago when i did think neons were cool,,, (oh how stupid do i feel admitting that now) be interested to know if you keep this toy & transplant it from car to car until one day you own that ferrari(or equiv) .....
i think its a neat idea,,(until you sit your fat arse on it!) now they just need to add some headphones, & then they could follow in apple & googles footsteps & make it into a phone/gps/pda/mp3/home cinema/kitchen utensil/refrigerator/clothes storage facility/spare bed/..........
is it really that simple to install? . asides,, really saving gas? how long would it take for the average driver (that is clever enough to know what gear he is in) to recoup the 169$ price tag? tasteful? really? or is that the opinion of the sort of person who likes neons lining the floorpan also?
if i ever hop in a friends car & see that,, i would firstly smash it with a hammer, then remove what is left & throw it in the nearest vat of stupid-toy eating acid,, if it were a strangers car,, i would be polite enough to keep my mouth shut while accepting the ride, then laugh at them afterwards.
it wont be long until this overpriced novelty item will be in the workshop junk pile along with other bad ideas like fluffy dice, & those funny wobbly head dogs, your grandma used to have on the parcel tray
oddmanout is getting close,, why dont swiss army knives get in on the action,, maybe if you forget which key is which it could have a flashing light & a voice that tells you what key it is for (really,, if you forget what key#4 are for, your gunna forget what they are on your keychain too) & empty port #6 is for collecting pocket lint
are there really drivers out there that are that stoned they forget what gear they just changed into?,, dont hondas already have that info on their gauge clusters? or is that only the earlier models,, either way,, it shows a lack of need for this toy, whats next will they make it flash in time with the stereo? (anyway,, arnt most cars autos now?)
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
