Alright, I admit it, the Lamborghini Gallardo is growing on me. But very slowly! Due to the recent release of the Gallardo LP560-4, I’m starting to get over my general dislike of the Lamborghini Gallardo. Long-term readers of Automoblog will be familiar with my having always thought the Gallardo was just a trendy, over-priced Audi. [...]
So, for some reason, Daniel McDermon, a reporter for the New York Times decided to take the new Vespa S for a spin down the length of the island of Manhattan. At first I thought, ‘That’s crazy! A scooter out there with New York city cabbies and what-not?” And then I remember that I watched [...]
Simply stunning. Those two words pretty much sum it up for the new 2008 Maserati GranTurismo S. This car is simple but gorgeous, and aggressive but elegant- which is a look that only the Italians can magically make happen.

Well this is very interesting, very interesting indeed. First off, let me just explain to those of you who Freeman Dyson is. He was one of the youngest people on the staff of the Manhattan Project, and although a brilliant nuclear physicist, the bulk of his work has been in astrophysics. He’s also the father [...]
Remember that awesome commercial from Pontiac a couple months ago for the G8 that looked like the old video game Spyhunter? Here it is again if you don’t remember: Anyway, they made a “making of” video for it, which is worth a look-see if you enjoyed the commercial and/or like the technical side of CG [...]
I have a theory, and it seems to be holding: Top 100 (or 1000 or 50 or whatever) lists are mainly there to start discussions, and on many occasions, arguments. It’s very rare when you’re going to look at a list of something like “The Top 50 Bourbons”, and say, “They’re right ‘Ol Rebel Rot-Gut [...]
