  • Treadway Mobility

    In a culture so dependent on cars for transportation, a future without them can be hard for us to imagine. In many cases, even today, owning a car just doesn't make much sense for certain individuals. In the city, travel by public transportation and foot (or bike) proves to be the most simple and economical for a huge portion of the population. Consider with me, if you will, a future without cars, in which urban pedestrians roll around on fancy shoes. (No, I'm not talking about kids on Heelys at the mall) Aptly named, Peter Treadway has given us a glimpse of how thinks that future might look...

    Warm up those DVRs, as what may be the fastest spec series in the world is about to take the green flag. The Dodge Viper Cup series will hit the track for its inaugural race at VIR this weekend. Each car in the series is a purpose-built Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR-X, 640 horsepower and 605 pound-feet of...

  • Ashley Greene

    Full disclosure: we haven't watched the Twilight films. Fuller disclosure: we're not going to. Translation: we don't really know anything about Ashley Greene's character in those films, though we assume from the commercials that she is either a blood-sucking freak or some kind of full-moon fuzzball. Given the wax job in this photo, we're guessing her coffin sits in the former camp. Another reason to suspect she bats for Team Edward without checking IMDB: Ms. Greene has switched from her a fairly conventional Audi Q5 to a snazzy Porsche Cayman, seen at the link below. And you know who else...

    A bevy of new Aston Martin models will be coming to the U.S. over the coming year and today we have the first pricing details for some of them, and let’s just say that the pricetags are rather hefty so you had better start saving now. First off the bat is the facelifted 2011 Aston Martin DB9...

    Not Another Green Car: Concrete That Cleans The Air

    With all the fuss about clean air, we tend to get excited about technology that prevents excessive pollution in the first place. And that's good, we need those kinds of solutions. The fact is, the air is still going to get... dirty. So, why not clean it? A special type of concrete paving stones has...

  • Shaquille O'Neal

    With all the talk of LeBron's departure from Cleveland, I've been wondering what I'd do with that kind of salary. There is no doubt that my dream cars would come in at the top of my list. Rumor has it, "King" James has developed a nice little car collection of his own. He has become a superstar. His potential seems to have no bounds (as does his ego, depending who you ask). People want to wear what he wears, go where he goes, and drive what he drives. He's not the only one, either. NBA stars have the means to drive the cars most of us will only see on magazine covers and posters. These days...

    Rendered: BMW's Carbon Fiber Megacity Vehicle

    BMW has already released an official teaser sketch of its upcoming Megacity Vehicle (MCV), and even a gallery of the carbon fiber unibody. But so far, it hasn't been easy to get a feel for what the little car might look like in the CFRP flesh. Problem solved--these renderings give a good look at...

  • Jennifer Aniston

    Brad Pitt? Gone. John Mayer? Man-ho. Gerard Butler? Still on the hunt. Apparently, he likes 'em mad, bad, and unavailable for 90 days. And so, Jennifer Aniston is without a traveling companion. Again. But soft, what dude through yonder valet stand breaks? It is a Mystery Man, and Jennifer has a headache! (Which may explain why she keeps losing traveling companions, but that's another post.) Actually, it's not a Mystery Man, it's actor Christopher Gartin, star of such popular fare as The New Adventures of Old Christine and Jane Doe: The Harder They Fall. Which is to say, Jen and Chris have a...

The new 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X SE (Special...
