In the future, driving will be a hobby for those of us who like cars. In the way that steam locomotives, canal boats, and (to a large extent) horses are now hobbies. And then it will be great because the only people on the road will be people who are enjoying themselves. A lot of these people are simply going to work and probably hating it. And I don’t blame them. They should be in little balls that fly through the air, powered by anti-matter or anti-gravity or something like that. The business of getting around needs to be satisfied by something else and then cars can become something we love and enjoy.

I mean that woman there doesn’t really want to be in a Peugot 206 on a Thursday morning on the A3. Why would she? She either wants to be at home or at work. And she wants to go “swoosh” between the two. Hopefully pretty soon she’ll be able to do that.

I can’t wait. I hope it happens in my lifetime. Otherwise I will have missed a trick. I’ll have been born out of sync with a very important phase in the cars development. Too late for it to be a pioneering activity. Too early for it to have turned into an indulgence.

DAMN!

Aston Martin DBS in “infra-red” this is color we certainly do not see often enough. 

formula15:

This car has lately become my “dream-car” of choice. For the longest time, it was the Porsche 911. Then the Ferrari F430. Not anymore.

However, if we are really “dreaming” then I would probably have a garage full of cars (new and old) and not just one supercar. Maybe I’ve been watching Iron Man too much.

Looks like I’m not alone in thinking the Triumph Bonneville is one amazing bike!

World Debut of BMW’s Gran Coupe concept.

I love the subtle aggressiveness of the new BMW design language. Clearly, there’s some inspiration from their competitors though. The lower front-fascia is very Audi RS5 and the side profile looks like an Aston Martin.

Icelandic Eyjafjallajökull watch containing actual ash from the volcano. Pretty bad-ass looking.

At 80 years old, Steve McQueen is still cooler than you...

Happy Birthday, Mr. McQueen.

“So go. Step away from the computer. Stop thinking about lame things like salaries, taxes, or that annoying guy in the next cube who never stops talking about his “epic” night at the local sports bar. Leave work, get in your car, and go tear-assing off into the hills. Unbolt your license plate and run some tolls. Speed. Buy a copy of Us Weekly just so you can burn it. When your pent-up frustration is exhausted, give a two-fingered salute to the man who needs no explanation. Birthdays, after all, only come around once a year.”

Lewis Hamilton checking out McLaren’s new MP4-12C supercar.

Schumacher and Hamilton apparently get to test and give feedback on Ferrari and McLaren’s new cars. What a fantastic perk of driving for these companies.

Check out more shots of the car here.
