Aftermarket solutions for mounting iPhones, iPods, and now iPads abound, but as anyone that's used many knows, they don't all work as well as advertised. Doing it yourself can be even trickier, as this video illustrates. But BMW has the solution for those without the stick-to-it-ive-ness to...

What with all the gay cars and 70s-icon hit-and-runs, we're a little behind on sharing some of the more pleasant celebs-and-cars stories.

April wasn't a good month for Caterham R500 drivers. From the Berg Cup in Germany and the Guernsey Hillclimb in the U.K., these two videos are lessons in what not to do when behind the wheel of a 1,117-pound, 263-horsepower Lotus 7 clone. Speed is your friend, greed is your enemy. Both drivers lost...

If you aren't already aware, Travis Pastrana, while being one of the nicest guys in motorsports, is also one of the craziest.

You'd think there's be more shenanigans afoot in the celeb world, what with Halloween weekend approaching. But no, our feed reader is quiet, and our appeal to Brit-Brit and Lilo clearly fell on deaf ears. Or unconscious ears. Take your pick. But all isn't lost. Surely you don't think we'd leave you...

The Acura TSX Sport Wagon (nee Honda Accord Euro Tourer) is finally headed our way, and this is the first promo spot for what Acura is billing as a sports car that loses none of the TSX's ostensible prowess.
