    I like the interior ideas but Windows OS? Reallllly?

    Nice touch with the grills made out of Toyota logo's. I wonder if those mirrors would hurt the cD/mileage in the real world. Too bad they ran out of money and couldn't finish painting the car! :ROFLMAO:

    Edit:

    My rankings after looking at them all:

    1) Camry (most tasteful)
    2) Tundra (most performance)
    3) Sequoia (most outlandish)
    4) Prius (most techie)

    Sorry Clint.

    Really. It is a great OS and I have been putting it in cars since 2002. "Carputing" using Windows PC's are very stable because you don't generally install freeware crap in your car.

    Im glad I saw this thread, I will have to check them out while I am at SEMA. And I'll be at SEMA for hardware that enables Windows in a car ;)

    Clint Bowyer is the NASCAR driver in charge of the sponsored build. The car was built for him and Toyota, but thanks!

    I wonder what the battery drain for that car would be. Might have to swap out that little 12v for a Li-ON battery!
