Not a 500. Very close though.

Hint: it has 6 seats.

edit:
A Fiat 600 it is Fiat 600 multipla to be precise

Nope, not a beetle.

good luck on this one

"unlimited 2"

Like the first one was unlimited, but this new one is even more unlimited :P

I would suggest renaming it to Test Drive Chuck Norris, he counted to infinity twice

Another nice browser feature, Press F11 in IE or Firefox to toggle full screen mode. Quite useful on small screens (like those netbooks).

Talk about practical! How many cars DON'T have THIS FEATURE which happens often!!

How bored must the owner be to actually record a video of that feature and uploading it to youtube

It makes my eyes bleed. I never really liked Alfa's designs anyway, but this one looks like it was designed by the same idiot who did those fugly chav bodykits.
I think the Fiat Grande Punto looks much better.

Found a nice exhaust tip you might want to buy:

There's only one thing better than a 5" exhaust pipe, and that's a 5" exhaust pipe fitted with a gatling gun style tip

There's just no way a 15" laptop can cool a 60 watt chip properly.

Dell 2007WFP, 20"

Very nice display, does need some calibration to get the colors right though.

Yes, but WHY???
Thats like having a Lambo and sticking a block of wood under the loud pedal so it wont go fast!

Just to show how much GTA4 benefits from multi-core systems.

You could use "set affinity" in the Windows task manager, to stop GTA from using multiple cores.

single core:


Dual core

What do you consider best? Portability? Performance? Battery life? Display quality? Durability?
1000$ isn't really the lowest budget ever, there is quite a range of laptops that would fit that budget.
I would go for a Dell Latitude. Not the best specs you can get for that price, but they do have a durable case and 3 years next business day on-site warranty. A Lenovo might also be worth looking at, although i don't know about their current models and prices.
Just keep in mind that you can't have it all for $1000. You'll have to make a trade-off between performance and build quality. Most "low"-budget consumer grade performance laptops are made out of horrible wheelie bin plastic.

I've had Pirelli P3000 tires, i thought they were quite good. Good price, not too much noise and good grip in rain.
Now i have four dirt cheap tires, CAET or something like that. They're horrible, and they weren't even that much cheaper than those P3000 tires. Even my mum managed to pull away with wheelspin at a traffic light.
