It was a prototype back then, but now AEV is preparing the custom Wrangler/pickup/SUV for production.

The auto shows in the United States are stages for American automakers to debut their practical vehicles. You know, a Fusion, Malibu or some compact car nobody will buy.

Kids these days don’t want to own a car according to an article on Foxbusiness.com. Millennials and the Generation-Y are “snubbing” car ownership and automakers will need to adapt. How? Crowd-sourcing or, in other words, giving anyone and everyone the ability to participate on an assignment or task. Think of the user-generated Doritos Super Bowl [...]

The Lingenfelter Performance Engineering (LPE) Camaro LTA Concept is like no Camaro on the road. It looks different…way different. It’s got a custom body built on the platform of a 2010 Camaro SS, a custom interior inspired by classic Trans Am muscle cars and custom 20″ wheels. It also rocks a 455-cubic-inch 655 horsepower engine.

The CCC Speedster might look geriatric, but it’s not. In fact, it’s like the exact opposite of the Vanna White who is waging a war on aging. But before getting too sidetracked, let’s look at the CCC Speedster built by California Custom Coach.

The 2012 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport is clearly looking to replace Bumblebee in the Transformers movie series. What a poseur. Even InsideLine has dubbed the Grand Sport’s yellow coat of paint and black accents the “Bumblebee Livery.” Since only 150 are slated for production and 45 have been sold, inventory is quickly becoming polar [...]
