It turns out that some of the cars from the latest and fourth installment of "Fast and the Furious" are up for sale on eBay.  According to this article, they don't seem to be worth much because they have been pretty well damaged, so beware...not that you were going to go out and buy one.  Can you imagine me pulling into the driveway in a Buick with "F-Bomb" painted on the front?  "Hey daddy, what does THAT mean?"  Anyways, I'm sure somebody will buy them and do something creative.

In the spirit of presidential vehicle investigation, I came across this presidential SUV, which apparently used to trail President Bush's motorcade.  Its not NEW news, but worth mentioning nonetheless, if nothing more than to give you an opportunity to see hot death emanating from the barrel of a mounted chaingun.  I hate war, violence, and the like, but man are machine guns cool.  Watch the video here and witness molten destruction.  This is something straight out of G.I. Joe. 

Following up on a previous article, here is more on President Obama's Caddy.  "Nicknamed ‘The Beast’, the limo is based on a number of GM platforms and shares components with several different vehicles." The specs on this thing are truly outrageous, but as it turns out, the President will not be making milk runs in this monstrosity, instead using it for public appearances up and down Pennsylvania Avenue.  See the article here. 

It seems silly to say that the President has a nice car.  I guess it should be assumed that the highest ranking official in these United States would have a nice buggy to putter about in.  Still, this car is really nice, as outlined in this article.  The only thing it seems to be missing is rocket launchers and machine gun turrets, which would be horribly impractical but immensely cool.  This particular Presidential Cadillac continues a tradition that began in 1919, "when President Woodrow Wilson sported a Cadillac in a World War I victory parade in Boston. The Calvin Coolidge administration kept up the tradition, utilizing a 1928 Cadillac Town Car."  The article goes on to chronicle the history of the special car up until the time of President Bush.  A great read. 

...Paris Hilton did buy a pink Bentley.  According to the article, the car and custom work totaled $200,000.  Of course I don't judge Paris Hilton.  Our versions of reality are showing in different theatres, at different release dates, in different languages, and in different countries.  This just helps me to understand the gaping chasm between Hollywood and the rest of us.  Yet they still set the pace for how our culture runs.  Interesting.  Read the article here.  

If you are into car collecting and celebrities, or either, you probably know that Jay Leno is a huge car collector.  We're not talking about the kind of car collector your grand daddy was, with a couple of antiques sitting in the workshop.  We're talking about a whole other level.  But if this is your thing, then this website will interest you.  Of course if you are really into it, you will have heard of it already.  Either way, enjoy the heck out of it.
