For M Coupe Lovers

This might be a repost, but just throwing it out there for those that may be interested...
It's a three-button optical USB mouse in the design of an M Coupe. The headlights, taillights, and scroll wheel all light up, as well as the interior, of the car, which has some other LEDs. The inside is just a small board with resistors and such.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Optical-...item1c23b65b7c



I've had one for the longest time, and the old one I have is a bit scuffed up from years of use, so I just put in an order for another one. Only $10 or so

All I'm seeing on Ebay is silver and blue. I recall seeing red ones as well back in the day, but you'll have to ask the seller if they have other stock. Happy motoring

I think it looks fine, considering it is a mouse after all and still needs to be ergonomic and functional. Plus it's super cheap.

I wonder what grips better, the mouse's rollerball or the real car's stock Contis...

It's optical/laser, so no trackball. Which means...Conti's win

Rollerball any day of the week IMO (although Lon has a good argument against that).
