BMW made a pickup M3 and even went through the process of testing it on a race track making all the car nuts go mental.

I loved Googles last year. They created a device which let them translate animal speech lol.

On another note my girlfriend text me saying she fell and broke her arm at 9AM so I got up in a panic and phoned her only to realise I am a fool. Couldn't go back to sleep. :(

By "making all the car nuts go mental" you mean "attempting a half assed joke that was called out two weeks in advance"
