This may be the best "viral" advertising video I've ever seen made by an auto manufacturer. Nothing fancy here, no ridiculous special effects, just the reactions of a few average people riding in the new Porsche 911 GT3 being pushed to the limit.My favorite part is when they show the people glancing over to the speedometer with that "oh sh*t" look on their faces!Thanks to @sportscar for the link!

So why are we being told to change our oil every 3,000 miles if its unnecessary?First, lets look at the auto industrys argument
El último sencillo del más reciente disco de Madonna, Miles Away, ha sido catalogado por la prensa especializada como su peor fracaso musical, en sus más de 20 años de carrera.

Want a normal-looking car that's all-electric and can actually do highway speeds and longer ranges? Maybe you also want it to cost less than $35,000 and seat five? All of this assumes you don't work for the government (Condoleeza Rice) or have your own TV show (Jay Leno) so that you can afford a Tesla Roadster.

Madonna recently dedicated the song Miles Away to Guy Ritchie at a concert. She didn't say it quite that way exactly.

For the first time doing HIIT, I probably should have built up to it by quarters. Be th

We've all heard that popular saying... "A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step." Well, it's actually a slight mistranslation. A more accurate translation of this quotation from Chinese philosopher, Lao-Tzu, would be: "Even the longest journey must begin from where you stand." Rather than emphasizing that first step, Lau Tzu regarded action as something that natu
