This car runs on pure testosterone. You can’t even start the ignition unless you have big hairy balls.

“There are holy grails of car culture and then there are vehicles owned by STEVE McQUEEN. Christie’s has announced that Bullet’s incredible 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso (if you have to ask…) will go on the block August 16 at Christie’s International Motor Cars 2007 flagship auction in the Monterey Jet Center in California where the vintage front-engine V12 supercar is expected to fetch (conservatively) between $800,000 and $1.2 million. The car was special ordered (only 350 were built) by the actor from Otto Zipper Motors in Santa Monica, California in the rare factory color of chestnut brown metallic with a light beige interior and used as a daily driver for nearly a decade. In recent years it underwent a 4,000 hour period-perfect restoration by its current owner. “To die for” starts to sound adequate. You’ve got three months to save up.”

 In a move that signals the complete integration of game and commercial potential, Visa has announced a new World of Warcraft VISA. Gamers of the world can now simultaneously reap the benefits of their gaming habits both online and in RL. We are now mainstream and this is our validation. VISA, it’s everywhere you want to be…in Outland!

This card will quickly become the new access pass to the secret life of the gamer. You no longer need to hear keywords from the gaming world to indentify one of our own kind.

Personally, I can’t wait to flash my WOW card the next time I get dinner. “Sir, it seems that your card has been declined. Are you sure you have enough gold on the account?”
