As you may have noticed, I added a new voting system for posts and a post view count feature. Hopefully the voting system will add more interactivity for those lazy people who don’t have the time to leave a comment.
Apparently some celebrities showed up at the LS “460 Degrees” art gallery in Beverly Hills. Including Ashton Kutcher, Jeremy Piven, and Jason Lee.
Here, we see Ashton Kutcher in his silly black shoes giving a big fat thumbs-up to the new LS.
As I was surfing through Google Video, I came across the documentary Who Killed the Electric Car?. But this was not just a clip, it’s the whole entire documentary. Interested by the ironic title, I watched the movie from beginning to end, and I must say it is quite interesting.
Edit: This full video was removed. So I can only find a trailer. But I highly recommend watching this.
Here is a preview of it below. You can read my useless rants and thoughts after watching the video, if you want.

Images of the rumored Peugeot 4007 sport utility vehicle are leaked around the web. This SUV is based on the new Mitsubishi Outlander and will be built on the same assembly line as its counterpart.
Although there are Peugeot design cues in the front fascia, the rear and body style remains much the same as the Outlander. However, there are no official confirmation that this will be the next Peugeot 4007.
One additional photo below.

Fiat is considering to replace its current logo with a new design to be placed on the new Bravo. Fiat has already changed its logo 16 times.
The photo of the Bravo below was scanned from a foreign magazine and appear to be authentic. It shows that the Bravo will wear the new logo design. Official confirmation will be known when the Bravo shows up at next year’s Geneva Motor Show.

For those of you who are wondering how the roof of the new BMW 3-Series Cabriolet works, Left Lane News has uploaded a video of the folding roof in action, which takes about 22 seconds to hide neatly into the trunk. It also shows how much space is left in the trunk as well as the storage in the rear.
The second video shows driving shots of the sporty new cabriolet.

On Tuesday, October 24, Toyota announced that it was recalling the Scion tC Coupe. Almost 30,000 vehicles are affected. It seems that the side airbags may deploy if the door is slammed shut when the ignition is turned on or within 90 seconds of when the ignition is turned off.
Right now, Toyota has only received 17 reports and no accidents or deaths have been reported. Toyota will send recall notices to owners next month and the airbag sensors will be replaced at no charge.
Let this be a lesson to you all, don’t slam your doors!

As you may all know, I am only 16 years old. I live in British Columbia of Canada and here, the Learner’s permit allows my age group to drive under rules and regulations, meaning that I must be accompanied by an adult with a valid driver’s license.
And like all drivers have experienced, I am still in the process of learning to drive. Although my skills are above average, driving is a pleasure and I enjoy every moment I get behind that wheel. Yet one thing still bothers me.
Do I always need to feel pressured when stopping at two-lane street in a red light? Why do I always feel the need to speed up when I am driving the limit whenever I look at my rearview mirror? Is the middle finger really that necessary if I am going slower than the maximum speed?
If you said yes to all of the questions above, then you are thinking of what I’m about to say. Drivers need to slow down and respect the laws of the road. Some days I see cars passing lane-to-lane without leaving any space and without flashing turn signals. How are the new drivers like me suppose to follow the rules if we are tempted to break them? How are we suppose to avoid accidents when it’s not us that’s causing them?
As a pedestrian, the signs near my school are almost never obeyed. The crosswalk is just paint that gets driven over. Every morning and after school, I’d have to wait for at least 3 cars to zoom past at 60M/PH or 96K/PH before even think about safely crossing the crosswalk. It’s ridiculous!
I’d also like to add a video that I found on YouTube to maybe help you think twice before you decide to speed next time.
I really like to see change, yet I cannot do anything. All I can do is tell you to respect the roads and help make driving fun again.
As for those who are goody-goody two shoes, I love you all and thank you for slowing down. 
BMW 335i Convertible is revealed! I added 20 high resolution wallpaper in 1600×1200 and 1024×768. Enjoy! I absolutely love the 3 coupe design. It’s so sharp.
