  4. Speeding ticket turns into disaster this guy can kiss his drivers license goodbye forever.
  5. $1,831,776 Aston Martin One-77 It's hard to think of a DB-9 or Vanquish as anything other than automotive perfection, so when the Brits in Gaydon say the One-77 is the embodiment of Aston Martin design, color us interested. The ultra-exclusive two-seat supercar seems to have it all: a 700 hp V12, carbon fiber chassis, aluminum body, and the ultimate in Aston design. The One-77 has an exclusive price tag of about £1,050,000 or $1,831,776 before taxes, too, and even the Paris Motor Show isn't a big enough venue to unveil the full design to the world. Aston Martin is sure playing up the anticipation for the One-77, and even though there is absolutely no shot we'll ever get to drive one, we're taking the bait. Teasers and sneak peaks are all we're getting at this point, and with a full year before it goes on sale, we could be waiting a bit longer. Aston CEO Bez Ulrich and chief designer Mark Reichman sat down to discuss the One-77 with the cameras rolling, and the two key players on team Martin seem to be in love with this vehicle.
  6. 2009 Nissan GT-R Top Speed for as heavy as this car is, it sure moves.
  7. Koenigsegg CCX vs Ferrari 430 Scuderia Both are awesome cars but the CCX is a monster.
  8. 1992 Corvette ZR-1 At 375HP this was the king of the hill in 1992.
  9. Corvette Z06 crashes at the drag strip Damn if the guy has trouble going straight, imagine what would happen in the twisties.
  10. Nissan GT-R vs Modified Porsche 997TT GTR needs mods. BMW M5 vs Mercedes CL65 vs Nissan GTR Off the line you will need drag radials to keep up with GTR.
  11. Cindy McCain - Drift car racer didn't expect this at all.
  12. Golfcart with Yamaha R1 1000cc engine this must have wheelie bars.
  13. Ariel Atom runs the quarter mile in 10.6 seconds at 128.4 mph
  14. Interactive GPS shows police presence and cheap fuel Dutch navigation company TomTom has unveiled a new satnav system that can update its maps in real-time for a number of different traffic conditions in order to help minimize time spent behind the wheel. The company unveiled the new device at the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin this week, and plans to offer it in the Netherlands, UK, Germany, France and Switzerland in coming months. Called the GO x40 LIVE series, the latest satnav system delivers dynamic navigation and route guidance that continuously adapts to changing road conditions on the fly. Stored within the system is a list of historical travel time information for every road, specified for every day of the week, at five minute intervals. The new device works by comparing these figures with estimated figures calculated in real-time using information gathered from anonymous measurements of mobile phones moving through their networks, and reroutes a journey onto side roads if it predicts the alternate route will be quicker. For example, a large number of phones stationary on a busy highway is assumed to mean that many motorists are stuck there in a traffic jam. It also connects to TomTom’s current High Definition (HD) Traffic service for more accurate and detailed live traffic information. The feature list doesn’t end there, however, as the GO x40 LIVE GPS units allow individuals to update the maps with live information such as the locations of mobile police radar and cameras, as well as cheap fuel prices. Other motorists in the area can then be warned to slow down or to look out for the cheapest fuel stations. There’s also full voice-activated control and Bluetooth connectivity. The GO x40 LIVE series is currently limited to the aforementioned European countries but there are plans to expand its network capability to other countries in the near future.
  15. Underground Racing TT Lamborghini Gallardo runs a very fast time of 10.4 @ 139mph.
  16. First Cadillac CTS-V performance test published The CTS-V ran the quarter-mile in a scant 12.5 seconds, besting the 12.7 it takes for either the BMW M5 or the Mercedes E63 AMG. Getting back to a standstill was another hit to the Bimmer and the Benz, with the Caddy stopping from 60-0 mph in 109 feet – five feet less than it takes the M5 and six shorter than the AMG. And if you're thinking that brakes and power are easy to upgrade and that the Cadillac couldn't possibly best the Germans on the handling course, think again: the CTS-V ran the slalom at 71.1 mph, while the M5 and E63 ran it in 68.5 and 65 mph respectively.
  17. Corvette ZR1 first drive from Edmunds.
  18. Top Gear channel launches on YouTube Top Gear is easily the most popular car show in the world, and one of the most popular shows altogether. But since it doesn't reach every corner the globe, the daily miracle that is the internet fills in the gaps. The BBC's approach to the online airing of Top Gear episodes has been an ongoing saga, with the company initially ordering YouTube to take them down, then putting the episodes on their own site before striking a deal with YouTube to allow episodes to be shown on the popular online video portal. The latest chapter in the saga now has Top Gear launching its own YouTube channel, which has now gone live. The channel features a vast library of Top Gear segments, including car reviews celebrity interviews and of course the famous epic challenges. All in all some 30 new clips have been added, and the channel will also host viewer competitions for prizes and whatnot. The new channel could potentially also host episodes of the American and upcoming Australian versions of the series as well, but we'll have to wait and see on that one. http://www.youtube.com/user/TopGear
  19. Audi R8 test drive ends crashing in a river The 33-year-old Dutch man from the town of Woerden in the Netherlands went by his local Audi dealership to check out a brand spankin' new R8 supercar... and then proceeded to drive it into the nearest river. The driver was reportedly speeding – 80 mph according to police, but closer to 125 if you ask some of the bystanders – in a 50 zone when he hit a bump, lost control and skidded into a !Removed!. Although local law enforcement authorities are reportedly investigating the incident, nobody was hurt. The same cannot be said, sadly, for the car, which is reportedly in a repair shop where the dealer's insurance company will surely declare it a write-off.
  20. Porsche GT3 roll over at Nurburgring Going in too hot.
  21. Koenigsegg CCR vs Lamborghini LP640 both awesome cars but the CCR has 806HP and Lambo 640HP.
  22. Ohhhh Noooo - Glue-on Brembo brake caliper covers Poseurs, take note: you can finally corral all that imaginary power your Hyundai Elantra SRT8 isn't making underhood. Eric Hsu at JDM Insider's Beyond the Dyno blog came across what'll doubtless be the latest trend to show up on M-badged Plymouth Breezes everywhere: bogus, glue-on brake caliper covers that give you the high-performance Brembo look while perfectly maintaining your fakemobile's incomprehensible lameness. When it comes to things that suck, innovation knows no bounds. What a joke. :(
  23. iPhone Dynolicious vs G-Tech The Garage419 crew heads up to Englishtown Raceway with the iPhone's Dynolicious software and a G-Tech Pro to finally see who's the king handheld performance monitoring tool.
  24. BMW owner tapes black car to white When a BMW 335i owner in Munich became bored with his black coupe, he hired a team to wrap it in white tape. Two days later, he drove home in his refreshed "Alpine White" coupe (with an M3-appearing black roof). No, it's not normal tape. It's a special 3M wrap, and the process is known as "foiling." Apparently, the German military has been using the process (with an olive drab tape) for some time now. Likewise, the process is popular with race teams and taxi companies. Available in countless colors, the tape itself is thick enough to protect the paint from minor chips and nicks, and it can be left adhered to the surface for 3-4 years without damage (!). Adhesion isn't a problem either, as the tape can even withstand an automatic car wash without peeling off. Thanks for the tip Frank.
