Three days of your life for a car. Worth it?

Some people are attached to their cars. Aloysius Lim, a 46-year-old Singaporean technician, was so attached to one particular Subaru Impreza WRX, they decided to give it to him.

Lim was one of the 400 contestants taking part in this year's MediaCorp Subaru Impreza Challenge. They had to stand with their right hand on the car with no sleep, water, food or shelter, except for a five-minute break every six hours.

The last person to remain connected to the brand new Subaru Impreza 2.5 MT Sedan gets to drive it home. After a sleep and a good feed, no doubt.

Lim lasted 75 hours and 17 minutes to clinch the prize yesterday evening, November 2. He didn't say whether it was his super-human powers of endurance or sheer stubborn folly that got him to the end.
