| AUTOart Carbon Fiber Desk Lamp
For all you ballers out there, anyone have any reviews or experience?  Quote:
http://www.hometone.com/entry/autoar...car-in-a-lamp/
We are all familiar with desk lamps, which we use to illuminate our room. Desk lamps come in various shapes and designs. But have you ever seen a desk lamp design inspired from a car? Well, look no further. This is the AUTOart Carbon Fiber Desk Lamp which has been created keeping a car in mind. This car-themed desk lamp embodies most of the things that you are likely to find in a car. Although it would not drive for you nor would it take you to your desired destination, but, it can surely light up your room just as the headlight of a car lights up the dark highways.
Carbon Fiber Desk Lamp
The ultimate desk lamp features carbon fiber & an adjustable coilover suspension
The design of this car-themed lamp has been done keeping an eye on the minutest of details. The base and the arm of the lamp is made from carbon fiber just as you would find in a modern day car. To give you the racing feel, the lamp comes with a “power start” button as well as “boost” button which increases the brightness of the lamp. The lamp comes with a two stage 12 volts 35 watts halogen bulb which can be rotated to adjust the direction of the light.
Another cool feature of the lamp is that its carbon fiber arm can be compressed just like an F1 racing car. It took the creators more than 11 months to get the design of the lamp ready. If you want one of these car themed lamp to brighten your desk and give it a unique look, then waste no time as it is very limited in the stock.

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
