My mums car REALLY stinks and its stinking up the whole underground parking. We seem to think a cat must have died in the engine since we couldn’t find a dead body in her trunk. I would open the hood to see if the theory is true but I figured the sight of a chopped up kitten splattered all over the engine bay would be something that I wouldn’t ever want to see.

Update: We took the car to get washed today, turned out it was a large dead cat. First place refused to wash the car because of the small, second place charged double the price. It felt like a Seinfeld episode..

I just watched three really funny VW ads which poke fun out of the MTV show Pimp My Ride. Whats cool also is that the actor who plays John Abruzzi on the TV show Prison Break plays a leading role in these commercials. [Link]

This is a video of a BMW M3 racing against a chipped Porsche Cayenne Turbo in Kuwait. Notice that the M3 slams on the gas after the Porsche starts to accelerate. I love M3’s. [2.8MB WMV]

Someone sent me this video today morning. It seems there is a street in Dubai where cars were always speeding so one day they decided to add a speed bump to slow traffic down. Problem is people were still speeding not knowing their was a speed bump waiting for them. The video shows how some cars were flying over the speed bumps which is cool but you have to wait till the end of the video to see the Lamborghini nearly flip over which is hillarious. [589KB 3GP]

They really don’t make cars like they used to. This video of Jeremy Clarkson and his Top Gear team trying to destroy a Toyota Hilux proves how reliable Toyotas really can be. I only wish they tried the same tests with the new Hilux to see if it lasted as long or lasted at all. [Link]

This has to be the weirdest thing ever. If you go to the Al Mulla Group Rent a Car page and check under Tarrifs you will find a car called Niggers Suck which you can rent for KD13 a day. [Link]

Update: Its been fixed. It now says “test” instead.

It looks amazing and the roof is now made up of 3 pieces! [Link]

I didn’t like what they did to the new Mustang so I am glad to see the new Camaro looks like its gonna kick its ass. [Link]

Whats up with this new law in Kuwait where you need to have a fire extinguisher in your car? Are burning cars that big a problem in Kuwait that we all need to carry around fire extinguishers? I remember there was a similar law in Lebanon, one of the politicians had purchased a large quantity of extinguishers and then created the law so he could make profit by selling them.

You have to see it to believe it. Two videos, one shot from inside the Mercedes SLR while the other from the outside. The Land Cruiser according to a commenter is pimped out with 4 turbos generating +800hp. Crazy shit.. [Link]

55mph motorcycle hits the side of a car, all three people die instantly. If you look at the pictures on the site you will see that the motor bike is actually embeded in the car! [Link]

I just saw the first pictures of the new Audi TT and its looks pretty… normal. I remember when the original TT came out it grabbed everyones attention because it looked like nothing else. The new Audi TT on the other hand looks a lot safer and regular. [Link]

They are opening a Ferrari theme park in UAE which will feature a racetrack, rides, and attractions, a display of Ferrari history, and even driving instructions. Its seems like a good idea but I would rather they open a 4×4 theme park here in Kuwait. The 4×4 park could have different rough and muddy trails which you could take your jeep through. I remember reading about one in Japan where you would bring your 4×4 and then pay to go around their offroad trail. [Link]

This video is not for the faint of heart. I think it was shot in Saudi Arabia of a car making stunts when everything goes wrong. Not very graphic but definitely shocking. [WMV 3.8MB]
