Final score - after penalties
Join us at 18.30GMT for Portugal vs Spain. After this, it cannot fail to be a classic.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: Cruel on Japan and Komano but they cannot say they did enough to win. The same is true of Paraguay but they took their chance. Spain and Portugal need fear very little.
Cardozo scores easily and Japan are out! That was a lovely penalty. Ends a truly wretched game of football.
GOAL! 5-3! Paraguay win!
Cardozo for Paraguay. If he scores Paraguay win...
GOAL! 4-3. Beautiful pen. Rolled in.
Honda for Japan. Crucial pen...
GOAL! 4-2 Paraguay! Blasted in!
Valdez for Paraguay...
He misses! Hits the bar.
Komano for Japan...
GOAL! 3-2 Paraguay. Confident pen, rolls it in.
Riveros next up for Paraguay...
GOAL! 2-2. Great pen. Fierce pen from Hasebe
Hasebe for Japan...
GOAL! 2-1 Paraguay. Just scored after Kawashima guesses the right way.
Barrios for Paraguay...
GOAL! 1-1 Sends the keeper the wrong way. Great pen.
Endo to take Japan's first...
GOAL! 1-0 Paraguay. Hard and low.
Paraguay to take the first pen. It's Barreto...
Villar and Kawashima are the keepers that will face the penalties...
Penalties will kick off in a minute or two. The first shootout of the 2010 World Cup.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: The occasion has got to both sides and they now face a test of the nerve that neither have shown.
That's full time! Penalties. Thank goodness for that.
Riveros (Paraguay) picks up a deserved yellow for handball.
Japan come close! Paraguay exposed at the back after Japan counter attack through Nagatomo, whose cross finds Honda but his header is saved.
Endo (Japan) is booked for a late tackle on Vera. The ref should use his discretion, that was the tackle of a tired man. Endo will miss the next game. Big miss for Japan is they get through here.
But Paraguay break and force a corner...
Paraguay's defenders throw themselves into three or four consecutive tackles. Defending for their lives here.
Takeshi Okada rallies his troops as penalties approach
Poor free kick. Cleared.
Will we be put out of our misery during extra time or is this going to penalties? Japan have a free kick in Paraguay's half, Endo to take...
Tamada for Okubo (Japan)
Paraguay kick off the second period of extra time.
Both leggy sides have 15 minutes until that becomes a reality.
Wow, this is awful. It's had penalties written all over for the past hour.
That's the end of the first half of extra time.
Barrios is penalised for handball. Honda received a yellow for the same thing earlier. So where's the yellow for Barrios? Inconsistent.
Paraguay's players prepare for extra time
Paraguay come close again after another good delivery from Morel. Barreto in the box stuck his head at the ball but it loops over the bar.
Honda strikes it well but the keeper Villar palms it away for a corner. I don't know why Nakamura didn't touch that to redirect it goalwards.
Honda standing over it...
But Japan go up the other end and win a soft free kick. I think even the ref wants a goal...
Valdez makes a quick turn and his sliding shot is smothered by Kawashima. That's as close as Paraguay have come.
Barreto comes close with a header but, again, Kawashima is untroubled.
Having said that, penalties have been on Japan's mind since the first minute.
Japan have one sub left but Paraguay have used all of theirs. I'm sure penalties is on both the coach's minds now.
Could be a decent sub for Paraguay. Benfica's Cardozo was the top scorer in the Portuguese league last season with 38 goals. Why was he on the bench?
Cardozo for Santa Cruz (Paraguay)
But Paraguay get it away and break with Valdez who does well initially in beating his man but his low across the box from the left is woeful, as you'd expect. Chance is gone.
Okubo is clearly tripped and Japan can launch this into the box...
Japan win a corner but Okazaki's header is just over the bar.
ESPN Stats & Info: Only two second round games have ever finished scoreless (Switzerland-Ukraine in 2006 and Ireland-Romania in 1990).
Extra time is underway...
Something mildly interesting that happened in the second half
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: That was a full-time score apparent from almost the first minutes. Nerves have got the better of these teams. The rules of extra-time are being explained to us by the stadium announcer. Penalties are surely inevitable.
That's 90 minutes. Extra time (and probably penalties) coming up...
Honda (Japan) is penalised for handball. Very very harsh. It wasn't even handball.
ESPN Stats & Info: There has never been a penalty shootout at the World Cup that did not involve a European side.
Good delivery by Endo, Tanaka flicks it on but it is cleared away.
Honda has been pushed in the back by Morel. Last chance for Japan... Endo standing over it.
We have 3 added minutes to endure before 30 minutes of extra time.
Nothing I can say will make this game more exciting. Just awful.
Japan are going for this, with 3 minutes of normal time left.
Honda flicks a beautiful pass into the path of Okazaki but he is too slow to latch onto it.
Japan are enjoying a solid five minutes of pressure here. A series of throw-ins in attacking positions are pinning Paraguay back in the latter stages.
I think a goal is too much to ask here.
Nagatomo puts a great cross in to Okubo, who collides with Villar. Both are receiving treatment. This counts as a moment of genuine excitement.
Kengo Nakamura for Abe (Japan)
Endo has gone down after being clattered by Morel. Looks to be making a lot out of nothing to be honest.
Decent long-range effort by the substitute Barreto, which finds the arms of Kawashima.
Yuto Nagatomo will miss the quarter-final if Japan qualify
Barreto for Ortigoza (Paraguay)
Paraguay launch another long ball into the box but Japan hack it clear. At the expense of a corner...
Nagatomo (Japan) Nagatomo is cautioned for tugging back Valdez. Misses the next game.
Japan look dangerous at times but Paraguay must change their system to unlock the deep-lying Japanese.
The most entertaining thing about this game has been the crowd
Kawashima has missed the ball there and clattered his own defender, Tanaka. Tanaka doesn't look to be in a good way.
A long ball into the Japanese box is flapped at by the keeper Kawashima.
Slightly odd decision to take Matsui off given that he's one of Japan's liveliest players, but he was on a yellow.
Okazaki for Matsui (Japan)
But Barrios is penalised for a shove in the back of Hasebe. How disappointing.
Valdez, who has looked bright since coming on, forces a corner.
Japan force a corner. Perhaps a set-piece is our best chance for a goal.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: We have just been handed the FIFA match stats. Its only note was that there was 1 minute of additional time.
Morel puts another lovely cross in from the left and Riveros catches it on the run but his header goes straight into the arms of Kawashima. Decent chance that.
Valdez for Benitez (Paraguay)
Matsui (Japan) Matsui penalised for a late tackle on Riveros.
I'm struggling to add to that.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: After 57 minutes, it's still awful. I have no more to say.
Paraguay, who dominate possession, win a corner.
Nagatomo hits a loose ball goalbound but it's deflected and goes tamely into the arms of Villar.
The stakes are so high in this game that both sides are seemingly crippled with fear. Nothing has changed since the first half really.
Morel puts in a lovely cross from the left but's just too high for Santa Cruz and the chance has gone.
Okubo remonstrates with no one in particular after being flagged for being marginally offside.
But they step it up as Ortigoza bursts into the box but the resolute Japan defence stands strong just as Ortigoza shapes to shoot.
Paraguay, playing from right to left in this second half, are playing at walking pace at the moment.
As things stand, we are on course for extra time and penalties...
Absolutely John, the first 20 minutes of this game was arguably the worst of the tournament so far.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: We hope for better here, that was a first period of snatched chances and no little fear.
The second half is underway
It has been a game of few chances in Pretoria
ESPN Stats & Info: No Asian side has ever beaten a South American side in the World Cup (12 losses, two draws).
You wouldn't think these two are playing for a place in the World Cup's last 8 after the first 45 minutes. Da Silva gives his players an ear-bashing before they limp back into the dressing room.
Infact that's half time. Not much to enthuse about here. Very even game, but both sides need to step it up a few gears if they hope to win it.
We have a minute of added time at the end of the first half of a lacklustre affair.
Paraguay look short of ideas as they move forward. Too narrow and too predictable.
But this one was more easily defended as Endo's ball was too low.
Honda took a long ball down beautifully under pressure from Da Silva. Great technique. Da Silva is penalised for another push in the back and Japan have a free kick in a position identical to a few moments ago...
Lucas Barrios is sent sprawling after his shot is saved
Japan burst forward through Matsui on the right who sets up Honda, but Honda slices his shot from 20 yards wide of the post. Waste.
Paraguay have the ball but it's a sluggish build-up and Japan win possession. Japan are much slicker in their attack but they also lose the ball through Honda. Hmmm.
Paraguay get themselves out of trouble again.
Santa Cruz heads a tricky delivery out for a Japan corner.
Da Silva is penalised for a clean tackle on Honda. Poor decision but Japan have a chance to shoot here and Endo is standing over it. Slightly acute angle.
Honda finds himself in a good position on the left but his cross is cleared. If this game is to wake up, Honda is one of the few capable of doing it.
Japan can move the ball brilliantly at their best but are sitting far too deep so far. They are playing far too cautiously.
ESPN Stats & Info: Lucas Barrios' 20th-minute effort was only his first shot on target of the tournament.
Tanaka hits the resulting free kick goalbound from all of 50 yards. Infact, that was on the halfway line. What is Tanaka doing?
Japan are leaving Honda isolated in attack and need to push up the pitch. They are inviting pressure. Speaking of Honda, he is fouled.
Morel's corner was quick and right into the mix, it falls at the feet of Santa Cruz who snatches at his shot under pressure from Honda but puts it wide. Should have more of that, Santa Cruz.
Paraguay put Japan under pressure for the first time. They have a corner.
Paraguay can't seem to get hold of the ball at the moment. Struggling to pass it with any purpose.
Comment from John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: This game has come alight. Barrios' chance was a good one and a good save by Kawashima, then Matsui crashed an effort off the bar. The Japanese have truly been the masters of the long-range effort in South Africa. The contrasting reactions tell me that the Japanese are the better-supported team here.
You wait 20 minutes for one chance then two come along at once.
Wonderful strike by Matsui! Matsui shoots from distance and his dipping effort comes off the top of the bar! Villar was beaten.
Finally some excitment! Brilliant turn by Barrios on the edge of the box gives him a sight of goal but he hits his shot straight at Kawashima's legs. Good save but should have scored there.
Keisuke Honda battles for possession
'Scrappy' would best describe the first 18 minutes here.
Japan finally commit players forward but Honda can't get his foot on it.
Paraguay keeper Villar, a veteran of 35, is seeing a lot of the ball as Japan hit numerous long balls towards Honda and Okubo. Too long thus far.
Quite a slow pace so far. Paraguay enjoying the majority of possession, but the sea of blue of shirts are making it difficult for the South Americans.
Japan win a free kick about 40 yards out. Endo, the man who scored that stunning free kick against Denmark, chips it into the box but this time Paraguay can head clear.
Santa Cruz having some influence on the right hand side today. Paraguay almost playing a 4-3-3 as they look to stretch Japan.
Very even, as you would expect, in these early stages.
Paraguay pose for the world's press prior to kick off
Paraguay get forward and Santa Cruz whips a dangerous cross in from the right. Paraguay's Benitez and Riveros have clattered each other and have gingerly got to their feet holding their heads.
ESPN Stats & Info: Lucas Barrios has scored in all three of his friendly appearances for Paraguay, but none of his three competitive ones.
Japan clear their lines.
Paraguay won a corner on the left hand side. First of the game. The referee is telling the players to stop pulling each others shirts.
Komano tries an optimistic shot from the right hand side. Saved by Villar.
Matsui chops down Riveros and that could have been a yellow card for the Japanese midfielder.
Paraguay are in their usual red and white shirts and white shorts and socks.
Japan, in all blue, are kicking from right to left and Okubo immediately gets involved firing an early shot just wide. Good start by Japan.
Japan kick us off in Pretoria...
Japan coach Takeshi Okada: "It will be a challenge for us as we try to get into the last eight for the first time, so we will be doing our absolute utmost to address this challenge."
Paraguay coach Gerardo Martino: "Well of course we came to the World Cup with dreams and we're working on it, we're still in the race. We're making a huge effort to improve our ball possession as I think this is the basis of our ambition in the World Cup."
The national anthems have played out, we a moments from kick off in Pretoria.
Comment from Soccernet editor John Brewin at Loftus Versfeld Stadium: Japanese excitement is at fever pitch, judging from a very packed press room indeed. Paraguay are making themselves heard via the medium of drums. Not a packed house for Pretoria's send off. That's a shame because this is a great place to watch football in.
Either Paraguay or Japan will create history today, as neither of them has reached the World Cup quarter-finals before. Paraguay were knocked out in the second round in 1986 (England), 1998 (France) and 2002 (Germany), while Japan's sole excursion this far ended on home soil in 2002 when they went down 1-0 to Turkey.
Comment from Kuzman Al Rashidin: Can't wait to see Endo and Honda in action.
ESPN Stats & Info: This is the second time Japan have reached the second round, in 2002 they lost to Turkey 1-0 in the World Cup they joint hosted.
ESPN Stats & Info: Paraguay have lost all three of their second round matches in World Cup history, failing to score on each occasion.
Let's start with a stat attack...
The teams are in, you can see them below.
It's Paraguay vs Japan from the Loftus Versfeld stadium coming up in less than 30 minutes...
Join us at 1400 GMT as Japan and Paraguay look to book a place in the quarter-finals.
Why not check out what our Japan blogger, Kentaro Matsuura, is saying about the game.
Coaches Takeshi Okada and Gerardo Martino.

Estimated driving and fuel costs
Cost of driving
Cost of driving is currently available for US cities only. It's presented in Google Maps next to the cost of the transit trip for comparison purposes only. This number is only an estimate and doesn't consider tolls, parking fees, or variations in gas mileage for different types of cars.
These calculations are based on an annual study of the fixed and variable costs of operating an automobile. Runzheimer International, an independent contractor, conducted the study for the IRS. The cost of driving is based on the distance driving between your start and end addresses, multiplied by the standard cost per mile that tax regulations allow businesses to deduct.
Cost of fuel
Google Maps can provide the estimated fuel cost for your next road trip. Fuel costs for your journey are displayed just under the driving directions. Clicking on the price opens up options to specify vehicle and fuel type, as well as change the fuel price.
Fuel cost availability
Fuel cost estimates are currently only available if your entire journey is exclusively through the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, the Czech Republik, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
For example, if you travel from Poland to Germany without traveling through any other countries, we'll be able to calculate the fuel costs for your entire route. However, if you travel from Poland to Ukraine, we won't be able to calculate the fuel costs for any part of the route because the feature is not available in Ukraine. We are hoping to make this functionality available in more countries in the future.

Oh please hang around in CHOW more often, I love the stuff you're doing!!!

Oh please hang around in CHOW more often, I love the stuff you're doing!!!
All right. What do you want to draw in the drawing group? AestheticMachine is apparently in Los Angeles and I am in Pasadena more often that not. Maybe something can be worked out here.
Very inspirational...Love your work..You have a distinct style that just catches one's eyes and forces it to stop and look at awe..I hope to be as good as you one day....
Have a great day....
I knew you when you weren't confident about anything. I knew you when you were just sitting around dreaming of doing great things, and now that you are - on a regular basis - you amaze the stuffing out of me.
I have drive, I have - had? - determination, but I never had the sheer creative curiosity that you have now. You've grown so much in such a relatively short time, it's dizzying.
Anything you do now that looks rough, that looks incomplete, that looks... unfulfilled in your pursuit to find your true self, understand that even at these stages your work is incredibly strong. Much better than many others' works, those who play it safe, and are trying to operate on the level of someone else's standard of quality.
There are those who are amazing illustrators, who are able to do the most wonderfully polished-looking work. We all marvel at them, their talent, their craft. But so very many of these amazingly talented people can only do the polish. So very many of these people just can't sell their work. Their characters just don't LIVE in their works.
Yours does.
All the time, I see you're able to portray sexiness, power, subtlety, rage and beauty. I believe these are the things that make for a true artist. Many people can become a technician. It takes a visionary to make his work live.
Your work lives and breathes. All the shortcomings of anatomy, perspective & whatnot will get stronger through time. But the foundation of your work - the soul of your work - is the very thing that will help build you and your career in your life.
This piece is powerful! The acting is excellent. It really sells the concept of what Frankenstein is or could be.
Damn nice work.
sketchbook of awesomness !
esp. love your newborn and season pics :)
drink and draw - 111809
Nice dumps you are putting out here man. Keep it up and I'll be around lurking. Saved a couple to study your lines and flow. You are pretty good at this.
been busy lately.
went to mexico for christmas, had an amazing time.
did my drink and draw there, i even inspired some people at the hotel who joined me and sketched for a couple hours. random people drawing at the bar with me and getting drunk. good times.
after that i got home, relaxed for a bit, planned my trip to dallas for new years... the day before i left i almost broke my ankle. had to go home on crutches! couldn't walk for 2 freakin weeks. didn't feel like drawing...
but im back in the saddle again, sketching away. but nothing i can post right now, its all for my personal top secret project. soooo yeah...
anyway, if you take a look at my last batch you can see a tattoo design idea starting to form of a skull with horns. well i took that idea, reversed it and progressed quite a bit.
the horns still need a lot of clean up but i think the design is close.
I'm very impressed by these sketches you're doing, obviously with a brand new tool of some sort. It looks like you're working with a calligraphic dip pen? Or some kind of special ink pen of some sort? I'd sure love it if you would tell us what it is, and maybe include a link as to where we all can buy such a tool. I know I'd buy a lot of them!
Your tattoo design is very striking. It looks like you've done it with traditional tools, and not the really great tool you used on your previous drink 'n' draw sketches. I think I'd really like to see you do tattoo designs with that new tool, to maybe take the already strong design you've done, and make it even more striking by using that angled tip you've been using.
I really hate you, but only in a jealous, why-can't-I-be-this-good kind of way.
yeah, its a new toy to play with, i love it. called a parallel pen.
i actually learned about them through Jason Shawn Alexander. He showed up at one of the drink and draw sessions about a month ago and i borrowed one of his to do this sketch:
and just above that sketch is actually a quick caricature of him. haha
you can find the pens and extra ink cartridges on amazon:
peppermint man looks like the old farmer from courage the cowardly dog = wicked cool
Your earlier graphic design looking stuff was bold, really harsh stuff, assaulted my sense in all the pleasurable ways. props!
good loooking stuff! subscribed!

hey man, thanks. i just checked out your site and sketchbook, very cool.
i have absolutely nothing new to post.
I've been working under an NDA, so i got nuthin.
Love the red robot and Riddick's lost brother!
More sketches!
My Sketchbook - http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=181789
figured i'd drop a quick sketch since my thread was bumped.
just trying to get better with the wacom... im about to give up. i cant sketch with it to save my life... so sloppy...
anyway, i've never done a super hero type character before... so here ya go:
Your editorial style of drawing is: dark, graphic, textured and amazing. Love it!
thanks mike, i truly appreciate it... that means a lot coming from you. i just wish i could take things to the level of finish that you do!
The last one is good. It takes some time getting used to the wacom, but in the end you'll love it. The sketching might not look like what you can do with a pencil, but you can always tweak the settings in PS to get that style you need. Also, I personally think wacoms are used mostly for finished art. Like the level Mike above, Bumskee, and Trevor are at. It just takes time.
Keep rockin man. See ya around.
super hero is sick. the confidence in your drawings makes my pencil hand shake. you communicate the subjects so well.
sorry i haven't updated in awhile guys. its been a rough year so far... lots of things have gone wrong lately. haha
anyway, today i did a couple sketches.
they're really just brush experiments. i found some cool brushes online, some random website, just started playing around with em. i was pretty happy with the results even though they relied heavily on serendipity. if i can just harness the randomness and focus it into a specific goal... i think i might be onto something.
anyway, here they are:
Those brushes man are pretty damn nice. Like the randomness of it actually. Maybe we can harness that power for the good of concept art? Maybe? No? Okay, well, keep messing around and I'm sure you'll find something amazing. Keep posting and rockin guy.
thought i'd do another before bed, fucking photoshop crashed on me. gave me an error "photoshop has unexpectedly quit", so i clicked "ok" and did a quick screengrab before it went away.
this is what i lost:
Thanks for the inspiration! I like the zeppelin on page 2.
Those brush experiments are absolutely gorgeous. I also like this image here
Very strong, very loose yet very bold. More!
Damn, that looks like it would have been amazing. Shit guy, think you can replicate it?
Wicked sketchbook man! Some really great characters going on.

Wizard hats
By Nan
from Detroit, MI
About Me Parent
I bought the hats to use for a 1st grade classroom. We created a "Word Wizard" wall and students that can read all 220 Dolch words have their picture taken with the hat - makeing them a 'word wizard'! Then we put the pictures on the wall for everyone to see!
Perfect hats
By kaykay
from Chicago, IL
Great hats! Used them at work for a team event and everyone loved them. They were good value for money and quite a fun addition to the event. Great service as well. Thank you windycity!
Surprisingly good quality for the price
By Wizard Mom
from Austin, TX
We ordered these for my son's wizard and robot themed birthday party. The kids loved them, but the adults loved them even more. They were adorable, and super high quality for the price. They were stiff enough to stand up on the kids' heads, while still being soft and collapsible. The kids got to take them home as party favors, and I'm sure they will stand up to hours of play even after the party is over.

Used these for my son's wizard birthday party. The price was so low and they were just adorable! I looked everywhere and couldn't find them for less. Loved these!
Great hats & a great price!
By Kathy

I used these at a trivia night. We called out team the Trivia Wizards. We also decorated our table with a wizard theme. We were a hit!
A Great Deal
By Michelle
from Lake in the Hills, IL
I bought the wizard hats for my son's 8th birthday party. It was a Harry Potter theme and each child received their own hat when they arrived. For the price, it is a great party favor and very affordable. Although the hats had some hanging strings (which I easily cut off), they are a cute item that kids can use for at home fun. I highly recommend this purchase.
As pictured.
By amyeye

I've ordered many, many novelty items from Windy city and all of them with the exception of the boas are perfect. I know from experience it's better to spend a little more money on the boas.
Great product, price & service!
By School Show Producer
from Tampa, Florida
I was so happy to find these attractive, detailed hats at such a reasonable cost. I run a high school music program, and the students were thrilled with how their Wizard costumes turned out. They stole the show!
Greatest Customer Service!

wizard Hats exactly as described
By AJ
from Yorkville, IL
I am so thrilled with these hats. I bought them for the kids Wizards costumes and they are perfect! I added a few personal touches to jazz them up a bit, but whether you use them as they come or personalize them, they are a great buy and the processing was so fast and easy. I would definitely buy from this site again.
Too cute!!!
By JanRod
from Belleville, NJ
I did a Fairy/Wizard themed party for my daughter. The girls had wings and the boys...wizard hats. Everyone loved it! The girls even wanted hats ; ). The were great for the kids (a bit big for the younger ones but I adjusted them with pins). And you CAN'T beat the price!!
I would definitely buy this again!
By Nurse Maureen
from Chicago
I purchased these for all the VPs in our Logistics network. We are having fun with working safe! The VPs are our Safety Wizards.
Great hats!
By Lisa
from Pittsburgh, PA
I purchased these hats as favors for my daughter's 6th birthday party.... It was a wizard party. I had a hard time finding hats at a reasonable price for 20 kids. These were great. They fit all the kids ranging from 3 - 13 and looked adorable!
very nice
By Iris
from New Jersey
These hats are great in color and rich looking. We are using them as centerpieces for a seminar with a future theme. We placed "metal hangers" in the middle to hold them up. Very nice and inexpensive!!
By teach2math

Great for the classroom. Thank You!
Great product for price!
By Helena

Used as the final find on a scavenger hunt! They doubled as the kids' party favors! & year old party - fit well.
Fun inexpensive wizard hats that fit all
By Pat
from Midwest
These are great, inexpensive hats. They really do fit a wide range of sizes. We got them for a celebration and they fit everyone from a big-headed toddler to a big-headed adult (the cone shape helps that way). Best price on the internet that I could find, too.

For The Mitsubishi Outlander is one of the more practical medium-sized SUVs, with seven versatile seats and a big boot. Ownership costs are reasonable and the ride is generally comfortable.
Against The cabin is rather dull and some rivals have more efficient diesel engines. High-spec models are expensive and have a fiddly touch-screen sat-nav system.
What Car? says
The Mitsubishi Outlander won't win any prizes for its dynamics, but the low(ish) running costs and the spacious, well-made and versatile interior will appeal to SUV buyers.
What Car? readers sayNo reader reviews found
Need help buying a car?Get in touch
There are 7 Mitsubishi Outlander versions available
Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
Until an exciting new plug-in hybrid version (which Mitsubishi claims will emit CO2 at a rate of just 50g/km) goes on sale, the Outlander will be available only with a 148bhp diesel engine and on-demand four-wheel drive.
The entry-level GX2 trim comes with cruise control, seven airbags and a six-speaker stereo. However, we reckon it's worth upgrading to GX3, which adds dual-zone climate control, automatic wipers, Bluetooth and alloy wheels. GX4 and GX5 models are very well equipped, but pricey.
The Mitsubishi Servicing Plan, which fixes the price of the first three scheduled services, is worth considering.

Seattle >Food & Dining > La Medusa
4857 Rainier Ave S, Seattle, WA | Directions 9811847.558419 -122.285318
Wed: 5am-10pm, Fri-Sat: 5am-10pm, Tue: 5am-9pm, Thu: 5am-9pm
Neighborhoods: Ranier Valley, Columbia City
Fit for a Foodie – La Medusa was one of (if not THE) first restaurant to help bring Columbia City "back". The food has always been top rate. With the new chef, I think this is the best the food has ever been. The wine selection is great. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The small space has a great look and feel - It does get a bit loud and the benches can be hard on the backside, but overall, I just love this place. I've had probably 50 meals here - and they are always excellent.
Worth a short trip to Columbia City – A very creative menu that has never let us down ... we've been going there for the past four years and loved it , every time. It's also a great place for entertaining friends who are visiting/new to Seattle.
It's a bit more expensive that we would it like, but it's not over-priced ... we just think of it as a special treat as opposed to a regular hangout.
Highly recommended for Foodies – I frequent mom and pops, hole in the wall restaurants to 5 star establishments..including The French Laundry. La Medusa's food is excellent yet very affordable ( In L.A. would have double the price). I cook, so I know the chefs put a lot of work in the final product. Ingredients are always fresh, cooking techniques demonstrate the skill of trained chefs, capturing the taste and texture of the raw material. LaMedusa is not a Meat and Potato person ,but if you are a foodie and have tried and appreciate many different cuisines of various culture, you will love the food served here.
I have my dinner at LaMedusa at least once a week when I am in Seattle for business.
Incredible food, comfortable setting, kind and personable staff! – How often do you get to chat with the chef at a restaurant in Seattle? It's more of a small town occurrence than a Seattle thing but at La Medusa last night Chef Earl came out and said hello to the four of us mid meal. So far we had tried his Spicy Butter Roasted cauliflower which was powerful in flavor and something I can't imagine creating myself. The octopus was so far from chewy and accompanied by a hummus like dip. I used to avoid Octopus but Chef Earl has made me want to eat it for breakfast. Next came our pizza. We each had a piece of their brocoli rabe pizza which had not proscioutto, but some pork meat on top. It was a bit overdone on the edges which wasn't bad because it screamed homemade freshness. The pizza was a huge portion and perfectly covered withe the right amount of ingredients and spice. The meal was accompanied by bread from Columbia City Bakery that was soft, fresh, and perfect for dipping in the amazing sauces and very green fragrant olive oil. The wine suggested by our waitress was on the pricier side but worth every penny. It was an amazing match for every flavor we experienced. For dinner we all split the pork ribs and the tuna meatball pasta dish. In all we concluded that each main course alone would have been too much of one flavor. Splitting them was perfect. If you like to share please do so at La Medusa! The portions are generous, the service is kind, welcoming, and the ambiance is how you want your home to feel to strangers. To end the meal what else would you do but eat dessert? The lemon cheesecake was devoured and the pastry chef of the bunch was amazed by the dense almond delicious crust. The espresso chocolate cake was also dense and gobbled almost as quickly as the cheesecake. To sum it up, La Medusa was an eating extravaganza with an absurd amount of fresh flavors that consistently challenged our taste buds and left us ready to go back for more.
Best place in Columbia City - and top 10 in Seattle – La Medusa is great food and a lively atmosphere - one of our top local faves. The food is innovative Sicilian - both the beef and the fish dishes are terrific. Great service, fun atmosphere, and terrific fava bean creations!!
Yuck in Disguise. . . – La medusa looks so good from the outside and when we arrived and sat it was hustle bustle ( which we love ) but no music playing in the background, how bizzare. Our waitress has a lame personality visiting us way too much, she raved about some of the things that we ordered on the menu like we had hit the jackpot, one being the chard salad with golden currents. It sounded deliciously different but turned out to be lacking alot of flavor, and the idea ws so good I wanted it to be delicious. The pasta was mediorce red robin or something. A very cute space for a fabulous italian bistro, and after going to all the wonderful joints in the hood we were so bummed that La Medusa was not good. We will give it another shot but such a bad first experience.
That magic combination of homey comfort, urban attitude and authentic Italian fare converge at this Columbia City storefront bistro. – The Scene
Original owners and chefs Sherri Serino and Lisa Becklund have moved on from their "Sicilian soul food" dream, but chef-owner Julie Andres keeps things moving along, partially thanks to her many years in the same kitchen. Permanently popular, the cozy surroundings are a sexy backdrop to the powerfully sensual flavors. Servers can seem oddly mellow and details may need to be called to their attention.
The Food
Starters include Grandma's Greens--warm, soft, slow-cooked greens with garlic, olives, raisins and pine nuts. Pastas are tossed in sexy combinations like the spaghetti con le Sarde: sardines, fennel, pine nuts, olives and raisins. Crisp thin-crust pizzas are strewn with intriguing combinations of sweet roasted vegetables, rich cheeses and spicy meats. Desserts, such as the citrusy herb-infused sorbet or the chocolate-laced cannoli, are no less spectacular.
La Medusa rocked my sicilian soul! – Friends and I shared dishes. We tried a cous cous dish with chicken, the antipasta, and salted cod manicotti. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful. We even ordered a "holy canolli" that was amazing. The space is a wee bit cramped for heavy folks and the wine is pretty expensive. All in all, we loved it.
Fine Dining, Not enough Wine-ing – La Medusa has a great menu, friendly service, and a very nice atmosphere. We were a party of 6, and had a wonderful dinner. It was relaxing, we were never rushed. There were many nice touches like warm appetizer plates & and warmed dessert plates. The flavors were wonderful. The price was quite reasonable for such a fine dinner. The only downside was the wine list. The most reasonable priced red wines were $24.00 and they ran out (we ordered the last bottle). It would have been nice if they had a larger selection & quantity of wine at a lower price.
Still great – I've been enjoying the occasional dinner at La Medusa since it opened. Yes, the menu has changed since it first opened and it is more expensive. I like it even more now than when it first opened. I love the food and I can't figure out what the other reviewers are talking about in regards to the service - the service is consisently good. Based on the crowds I regularly see at La Medusa I'd have to guess that many of my neighbors agree with me that La Medusa continues to be a fantastic place for dinner - and I don't have to drive downtown!
