uhhh, we are speechless

This is amazing! I thought I’d seen all those crazy weapons from Nazi Germany- now this? I can’t believe it’s for real- does anyone have anymore information on this?

I knew that before mobile phones Nokia produced all manner of things including car tyres but this is the first time that I’ve actually seen one.
It was one of two spare tyres on a Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire 360. The car was introduced in late 1951 and was sold until 1958.

Audi has just announced that it will build a 500-plus horsepower version of the R8 sportscar for competition use. Sadly, that does mean it will not be street legal, but it does open the possibility that a street legal version is in the pipes.
The R8 GT3 conforms to GT3 regulations and will therefore be able [...]

A new sports car that is every eco-conscious car-lover’s dream arrives in Britain later this month. Powered by 30 electric batteries it can reach speeds of 130mph, accelerate from 0-60mph in four seconds and has a luxury interior to boot - but will it be the vehicle that finally cracks the UK’s eco-car market?
The Lightning [...]

To recreate the General Lee from the TV series the Dukes of Hazard, you need: 12 cans orange spray paint; one 1 sticker; one 1969 Dodge Charger. This is what you get if you just have the sticker and the paint.

This video is a pretty good argument for why methed up truckers shouldn’t be allowed to text and drive.

First off, this is an Audi A6 and some dude decided he could tune the car to be a a super bad vahicle. I think he was wrong and he never should have created his Audi A9…

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the Porsche 997 GT2 2008, a car you will will probably never driver yourself…

Competing in the Dakar Rallye in a BMW X5. That’s asking for trouble. Still, this driver managed to not tip over his vehicle. Bet you couldn’t have pulled this trick…

Of all the possible reasons that a vehicle could be recalled, a poor paint job doesn’t at first seem all that newsworthy. After all, cars could theoretically be recalled for exploding gas tanks, runaway engines or any number of horror-inducing problems. Bad paint? No harm, no foul — just take it back and have it [...]

Prestige (Lamborghini Miami) spent around 2 weeks ‘colouring in’ this Lamborghini with Sharpie markers. The finished design was then covered with a clear coat for protection.

This is pretty much why the world thinks that the Japanese are behind every crazy gadget around and they are capable of producing some of the wackiest stuff that can be possibly dished out. This huge ‘Jaws’ on wheels was actually on bright dude’s idea to promote Universal Studio, Japan when it actually came first [...]

There are many concept cars out there and with each passing day many more seem to be pouring in and the concepts only seem to be getting crazier with the minute. ‘Audi O’, apart from the brilliance of the apt title, is one concept car that seems to be more grounded in reality yet is [...]

Last Sunday the city of Rotterdam transformed into a racing circuit. It’s always impressive to see racing cars this close. This was Bavaria City Racing 2008.

China, that’s what. Artist Qin Yufen has just unveiled Beijing 008 with the help of Aston Martin chieftains Ulrich Bez and Kenny Chen. The art installation brings together a ginormous tape measure, a quote about disorder, a statuary tribute to Stephen Hawking that hangs from the ceiling, and a V8 Vantage in a way that [...]

Ever been to Dubai? Me neither. That’s why I have never seen a Ferrari take a u-turn in Dubai right in front of me…

This car is almost too smooth. An original-series Ford Thunderbird is a fairly common occurrence at car shows, Woodward Dream Cruise or not. So it would be easy to pass right by this one. But the subtle lack of ornamental chrome and flawless pearl paint draw the eye. From the front, gold-painted perforated steel replaces [...]

Typically when “music” is mentioned in the same sentence as AMG, it’s in relation to the deep burble emanating from the exhaust pipes. But with all that Teutonic, sound-deadened cabin comfort, customers of the Mercedes tuning division have come to expect an equally impressive performance from inside the cabin. To that end, AMG has signed [...]

The Bugatti Veyron just lost its last claim to fame. Having already been dethroned as the fastest car on the planet, the $1.4 million Veyron and it’s more expensive roadster sibling is no longer the world’s most expensive rides. That title now rests with the One-77, the $2.3 million hand-made coupe Aston Martin will sell [...]

New technology that can make tanks invisible has been unveiled by the Ministry of Defence.
In secret trials last week, the Army said it had made a vehicle completely disappear and predicted that an invisible tank would be ready for service by 2012.
The new technology uses cameras and projectors to beam images of the surrounding landscape [...]

There was a pretty good cross-section of archetypal Detroit machinery represented at the Gumball 3000 in San Francisco yesterday, including a donked Riviera, the lowest Ford pickup ever built (with the most beautiful set of vintage gauges I’ve seen in a long time), and a couple of classic musclecars. Yes, K.I.T.T. was there as well, [...]

Whether they were notable for their superior performance, or for the superior performers who drove them, RideLust’s list of the 50 Most Famous Cars pays homage to all the truly iconic automobiles of our time [and a few that slipped in under "editorial bias"...] So without further ado, and in no particular order: The 50 [...]
