Can You Believe that this Subaru Driver Escaped from the Cops?

Ford F-150 Semi Truck Stuck on the Beach


Yes, we had the same question when we first saw this video: what the heck was a semi-truck doing on the beach in the first place?

Visit the Pagani Factory Thanks to Google Maps – Try it Out Here

It starts with a simple bump to another car stationed behind, but this parking incident quickly escalates from a silly facepalm into a massive "holy crap!" episode. Seriously, you have to see it to believe it.

Fast & Furious 7 will be Made With Paul Walker Lookalikes and CGI


Because that’s exactly what the world needs right now – the Fast Five movie (plus two) with forced plot twists, no co-star and an animated character. Granted, you’ll still see Paul Walker’s face and body in the film, planned to hit theaters across the US on April 10, 2015, but it won’t really be him half the time…

Honda's 1990s Civic del Sol, also known as the CR-X del Sol in some parts of the world and the last generation CR-X in Europe, wasn't the Japanese brand's proudest styling moment – without the rear spoiler it looked like a cartoonish pickup truck, but this tune makes the original look gorgeous in comparison…
