    The 1971 movie Le Mans is essential viewing for anyone with gasoline in their veins. It's a turgid, plot-less nightmare for everyone else, but if there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that Steve McQueen, the Tag Heuer Monaco watch he wears, and the Porsche 917 he drives are all effortlessly cool. Bidding for that 917, which goes under the hammer at Gooding and Company's Monterey auction later this year, will be anything but cool.

  • Robert Downey Jr., as Tony Stark, drives the Audi R8 e-tron - image: Audi

    If you’ve seen either of the first two Iron Man movies, you probably lust for Tony Stark’s car collection as much as we do. The fictional billionaire playboy (reportedly patterned after Tesla CEO Elon Musk) has a serious passion for all things fast, but seems to prefer Audi models for daily-driver duty. Expect to see more of the same when Iron Man 3 hits theaters on May 3. As Audi tells us, the brand will once again be featured throughout the film, with perhaps a bit more tact than Mercedes-Benz displayed in the latest “Die Hard” film. In the words of Loren Angelo...

  • Roger Moore in the Aston Martin DBS

    It’s hard to believe it’s been 50 years since the release of the first James Bond movie, 1962’s Dr. No, though admittedly the fictitious secret agent is somewhat older, with writer Ian Fleming having published the first James Bond book (Casino Royale) back in 1953. Nevertheless, there’s still reason to celebrate, with last Friday marking Global James Bond Day, and today being the opening day for the latest installment of the James Bond franchise, Skyfall, which stars actor Daniel Craig. While other actors like Sean Connery, Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan did a great...
