Holy shit. Check out this matte black Nissan GT-R. I am in love. This is my favorite car and now my favorite color. On top of being simply gorgeous, this car also lapped the Nürburgring in 7:29.

More near-perfect advertising from Mini Copper. Hammer and Coop is a strange Knight Rider spoof starring a guy with a mustache who kicks a lot and Mini Cooper called “Coop.” The short episodes have a really stunningly high production value, plus the scripts are funny, and the car is awesome.
(You might remember the CCC or […]
Last night was Top Gear’s season premiere on BBC. The last 12 minute segment was their interview with Richard Hammond, and the footage of his record breaking jet car speed run of 314MPH along with the other record breaking, and nearly neck-breaking, crash at 288MPH. This is an incredibly great segment. Jeremy Clarkson handles situation […]
Toyota is producing a limited availability (only 3200 produced) special TRD edition FJ Cruiser for about $30,000 before dealer gauging, and I want one badly.
Good luck navigating the mess of Flash and popups. It’s in the Baja 1000 section.
The reviews of the normal FJ are pretty fantastic, and the TRD is basically a fully loaded […]
I consider this Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster motivation for finding a way to get rich. Quite possibly the most beautiful car on the road.

smart fortwo + Suzuki GSX-R1000 = “smartuki” = insanity
A friend of mine showed me this video a few months ago but I forgot to post it. It’s video of a modified DaimlerChrysler smart fortwo with its engine ripped out and replaced with a 1000cc, 140HP engine from a Suzuki GSX-R1000 motorcycle. Actually, it’s pretty tweaked […]
Volkswagen officially unveiled the IROC concept car, due in showrooms by the end of 2008. They’re calling it IROC, but really it’s the new rev of the Scirocco (which later became the beloved Corrado.) Lost of speculation about price and engine, but it looks like it’s going to be great. As is typical with VW, […]
If football (soccer) was played like this all the time, I’d actually watch it. Honestly, I can’t think of anything more fun you could do with a car. These Top Gear boys really do know how to have a good time. Watch the Toyota Aygo vs. the VW Fox in a quick game of soccer…

Scott Wade has got a lot of free time. Instead of writing “Wash Me” with his finger on the dusty cars in his neighborhood, he uses paintbrushes, chewed popsicle sticks, and about anything else to create the most incredible artwork in the dust. I wonder what people do?
Really great work.

Along with the 3-series coupe, this week BMW unveiled the “Clever”, a 2-seat, 3-wheeled concept vehicle, enclosed, and safe, crash-tested and airbagged, and absolutely gorgeous. I LOVE it. The article claims it is, “expected to cost around $10,000 and would have a top speed of 50 mph” and an expected 188 MPG! The coolest part […]
I had my heart set on a new Volkswagen GTI when I got back to the states. I still love it, don’t get me wrong. But I recently saw some unofficial “official” photos of the new BMW 3 series and thought that it looked interesting. Well, now that I have seen this official unveiling, I […]
