Jeep JK-8 Independence kit finally turns your Wrangler into a pickup truck {Autoblog}
Apr 7th 2011 2:20PM AEV has had their Brute Pickup Conversion kit out for a few years now, which (I think) looks better. Guess Mopar wanted in on some of the action.
Xplore turns its attention to the Jeep Wrangler {Autoblog}
Feb 7th 2011 9:10AM Half the goodies you get with the Rubicon, the other half are either easy DIY parts (bumpers, lights) or useless (leather and suede?). Not sure I see the real value in anything here.
Ferrari Confirms AWD Hatchback Ferrari {Luxist}
Jan 24th 2011 11:38AM The 612 was never the Ferrari "flagship". That title belongs to the 599, and assumes you don't count the limited-edition uber-cars like the Enzo.
Strait Lane, Estate of the Day {Luxist}
Jan 14th 2011 1:52PM Ouch! Pick one interior design scheme...please!
DanMar Manor, Estate of the Day {Luxist}
Jan 12th 2011 2:22PM I don't think the term "McMansion" applies here. Cheaply-constructed and designed houses, built only to maximize square footage, with little regard for architectural style, squeezed onto undersized lots, is what the term is actually meant for. Essentially, get the most square footage you can for x dollars. While I agree that the house is obnoxiously huge, inefficient and over-the-top, it's still a real mansion and not a mansion-wanna-be.
Detroit 2011: Jeep Wrangler Call of Duty: Black Ops Edition set for major pwnage {Autoblog}
Jan 12th 2011 2:07PM Assuming the locks are keyed on both sides of the door, they would work when the top is up. Well, "work" only as well as any other convertible...until someone knifes the soft top to crawl in through the plastic windows. Doors are for sissies anyway!
Report: Top Gear USA premiers to middling viewership {Autoblog}
Nov 23rd 2010 6:29PM Getting almost half the audience of Conan? I'd call that pretty good for a show with 3 hosts known only in car circles (basically.) I agree that Adam Corolla would help bring in a much wider audience right off the bat. Still, as long as the car porn is good, I'll be watching. Tanner's 360 in the Viper made up for all the uncomfortable banter.
180 Arvida Parkway, Estate of the Day {Luxist}
Nov 22nd 2010 2:08PM Is this (or used to be) Pat Riley's house?
Report: Volkswagen eyeing Ferrari stake? {Autoblog}
Nov 11th 2010 2:03PM Ferrari and Lambo owned by the same person? That's like the Steinbrenner family buying the Red Sox. Or peace in the middle east. Or crossing the streams. It's insane to even think about it.
(I found your butler joke mildly amusing, but why claim it's a true story?)
BMW To Build Hybrid Super Car {Luxist}
Nov 10th 2010 9:20AM I'm not trying to be an auto snob about this, but the M6 is in no way considered a "supercar"...by anyone. And 0-68 in 4.8 seconds for this new car is fairly pitiful, especially for something with electric motors and 100% torque at 0 rpms. Just sayin'. I do guess it will have radical enough styling to make it look supercar-ish though.
