Hey what do you guys think, just picked this off of cnn. Might be worth it just to see if the car is being driven hard when not in your possession. Of course someone could remove it, it also tracks that as well:

Does anyone know of similar products?

Looks interesting and for under $200, could be worth playing with. Now if it could only track clutch usage, we would be all set
