What do you drive?

2002 BMW X5 4.6is, fully loaded, blue with black leather :D

But it might be going soon, the gas consumption is quite horrid, and I can see myself replacing it with a 2-door coupe or a 4-door saloon. I like the E39 5-series but its a heavy car, so it's not going to help the gas bill much.

2009 Infiniti G37 sedan. 328 horsepower...0-60 in 5 seconds. Navigation, rear view camera, 9.1gb hard drive, iPod interface, leather heated seats, cool lights...love the body. Very fun to drive.

My 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. Yep, still have it and will not get rid of it. Has a 215hp engine, goes 0-60 in ... well whenever it gets there ... been a good vehicle with only a few minor issues. Pioneer radio with 2 10inch subs (does "thump" a lot better than the Infiniti Bose system), Garmin Nuvi GPS, turn key ignition, cruise control (not working due to recall), iPod interface (which sucks)...but yea...it is a good vehicle.

It hasn't been washed in a loooong time. New tires though. :)

2008 Ford Mustang. It may be a only V6 with all the V8 GT options--however, it does it's job. A very beautiful car (at least I think so). I had a 1998 Pontiac Firebird/Formula until someone ran a stop sign. I was saving up for the 2010 Camaro, but I needed something to get me back and forth. I spent too much on the Firebird to even think about buying another used one.

Dealer pictures (I haven't gotten around to taking pictures to the snow!):

Here's what I drive. :D Not really. Just what I ride when I go to "The Rave" (concert hall), or get around downtown.

No need for a car being a college student and parking being $80-$100 /month in a parking structure.

When I graduate and can start knocking off my $100k+ of debt, I hope to get an Infinity G35 Coupe.

^They seem to have a show a few times a week. www.therave.com

I just saw Disturbed and Skindred a few weeks ago at The Rave. The place was absolutely packed.

Matisyahu with the Flobots would have been awesome. They both put on a great show at Summerfest this past summer. :D

I bought a GOLF I GTI yesterday:

100 % original inside and outside (except rims and suspension)

there's a stain of rust at the rear right wheel

196 000 km

july 1983

The engine needs a lot work (I hope to drive it this summer)

Plans: getting the engine fixed, maybe some BBS rims and inox exhaust, chrome mirrors, new front and rear bumper

A Toyota Corolla 2009, best car ever IMO. Just got 25,000 km and no problems.

I hope Toyota changed out all that cheapo plastic that plagued the 08 Corolla. I remember seeing Graeme Fletcher on Motoring 08 shake the hell out of the front bumper. "Flimsy fisher price crap" :laugh:

Ahh the good old Florida, always can tell just by looking at a picture, knew it before saw your info :)

Nice car though..

Thanks.

Yeah, Florida is nice during the winter months, but starting right about now and going until about November, it is absolutely miserable with the heat and high humidity. You will break into a sweat just going down to the mailbox to get your mail. I don't plan to live in Florida much longer. 20 years is long enough.

I was in a car accident a couple years ago in my friend's 07 Corolla. It totaled a Hyundai. Then hit a VW head on in the same night. (long story lol)

It held up well, believe me.

    • Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.
    • Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.
    • All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....
    • It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.
