Forget Volkswagen, plug Guitar Hero into your car


Forget that Volkswagen commercial with Slash plugging in his freebie guitar to the car's stereo system to rock out, GNR style ... why not plug in your trusty Guitar Hero controller and live the dream yourself?

Like Alex, who tipped us off to his bitchin' 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Sure, it's got all sorts of stuff under the hood that distinguishes it from the Joystiq station wagon (license plate: STIQ-1), but we're far more interested in what's in the trunk. Decked out with an LCD TV, a PS2, Guitar Hero, and two custom painted Guitar Hero axes -- all rigged up to what appears to be a deafening sound system (Joystiq recommends wearing ear plugs while playing Alex's car) -- Alex has created a serious nerd magnet. Car shows are one thing Alex, but you should pull this thing up to a game convention if you want to see real tech lust.

[Thanks, Alex]
