They don't mention it in this article, but the dashboard has a monitor installed in it, and when you put the car in park (which is the only way the system will turn on) you can use the steering wheel and gas pedals as a controller for racing games.  A regular controller also comes with it, and it is stored in the steering wheel IIRC.

On the morning news this morning they couldn't stop talking about this car.  If this car actually comes out i the next year or so, I might actually get one.  I will probably be looking for a new car by the end of the year, and I wouldn't mind being the biggest nerd in the neighborhood.  |D

That car is retarded. Then again, everything is better than your jeep.

That car will never be released IMO. I also see no need for it but it is kind of cool.

Yeah, the possibility of this seeing the light of day is probably pretty slim, but it is still a cool concept.

Again with the insults to the Mighty Jeep.  You better be careful or I'll send a flock of 12 year-olds to come steal your bike.

That is a wicked sweet car.

I want one to keep sealed and one to use.
Oh wait.... that doesn't make sense.

It is very cool never the less.

It's an interesting idea, but I know I wouldn't use the extra features enough to justify buying it, nor would anyone who actually has a life. :laugh:
