Rubbish? Well, I don't think so. At least I didn't have this feeling. Of course, this car isn't built to drive fast... or it may not have the "personnality" of a European car (I mean, the style and the engine). But the technology used in this car is really something new. The gearbox works by-wire. There's no mechanical link between the gear lever and the gearbox itself. The cooperation between the electric motor and the engine is really well made. All is done to work as much as it can with the electric motor. What's really praisable in this car is the exceptionnal reliability, although the car is full of electronics, and the fact that Toyota was one of the first car builders to think of this kind of cars (1997 for the first generation of Prius). Then Honda (Insight, 1999; Civic IMA, although it's not a real hybrid), Ford (Escape, only in the US) did the same. I think it was a real innovation and the other brands should do it too. Here in Europe, before 2012, the average of CO² emissions should not be over 120g/kilometer. Otherwise they'll be fined. I think hybrid cars are one of the solutions that the brands have to consider to succeed in this tough challenge.

I tried twice an automatic gearbox... The first I tried was a VW Passat V6 4 motion Tiptronic '98. Honestly, an automatic gearbox is sth really restful, especially when you drive a lot in cities, although it doesn't save energy at all...cos of the way it works... The second car I tried was the Toyota Prius... In fact, it doesn't have a gearbox. It's like a moped. You accelerate and the speed increases, without doing anything. Driving a Prius itself is sth really different. I enjoyed it, really. It's new. completely different from what I drove before.

I wait for your news:worried:... I hope everything's ok:worried::anxious:

Very nice, especially with this blue:nice: Do you know which engine it is?:D

awh, AROBTTH wins... I can honestly say it's the best album I've ever heard.

I have been fined cos I drive too fast:D Not that much...82km/h instead of 70km/h... 45€... Next time I'll be careful.

^C'est vrai que ça craint... Une minute de silence pour eux, meme si cela ne les fera pas revenir, c'est pour le geste, et la pensée au moins. Je m'appelle Mickaël, mais je prefere le diminutif, Mike. Mes amis, collegues de boulot et ma famille m'appellent comme cela.

Happy birthday, Guy! Have a nice day and carry on making the oceans of my thoughts waving (yeah, Guy is the waves in my mind, like Chris is the love in my heart, Jonny, the shivers on my skin, and Will the beatings in my veins...)

Ska is music. I don't like it. Do you have a special place where you go when you don't feel well?

Board? Bored? yeah, kinda lol stunning how words can be similar and have a different meaning... In french it happens a lot.

Wanna sleep now?:stunned:

:laugh3::laugh3: Ca, c'est une bonne idée! ^oh, bon anniversaire c'est la vie! Au fait comment tu t'appelles?

The book I bought noticed that your language and croatian are quite similar. About italian, yeah, why not! Well, first I've to study it a bit, before trying to write in italian. Beside "Ciao, come stai?" I don't know much... only few words... Mu future is depending on today. My whole future is depending on the drawing I've made... This is so exciting and scary at the same time.

Omg, the car... it's simply... pure perfection... It's official, the Torino project is in its definitive state. The color is a mix of dark blue and purple. The general look of the car is quite aggressive, but soft, too. The rear of it is really new, compared to the first version I drew one month ago. One word: perfection. Pics on coldplaying, very soon.

Bea, I really like your poems. You describe things I've felt before. That's really nice. And your last one is beautiful. You write really often! Lucky you! I can hardly put words together to make a poem since March... sometimes it comes, then I catch the opportunity, but it runs dry so quickly... That's why I began 8 poems or sth like this, and I can't even finish them!

Sounds ~Ah, that's why I didn't get the whole story... I've to watch the others. ~
