Idiotic Mercedes Driver Tries To 'Escort' Ambulance Through Traffic No matter what country in the world you are in, the rule of thumb is to get the hell out of the way when an ambulance is behind you blaring its sirens. One man in Slovakia didn’t understand that, though. Boris Zahumensky thought he was doing the ambulance drivers in this video a favor by “escorting” them through traffic. Of course an ambulance can weave its way through traffic a lot better if a Mercedes-Benz roadster isn’t driving slowly directly in front of it. The misguided attempt at heroism lasted about two minutes and left the paramedics in the cab bewildered.Eventually the driver gets a chance to tell the heroic Mercedes-Benz driver off, letting him know that they got his license number plate on film. Zahumensky ended up being arrested, losing his driver’s license and weapons license in the process.

Celebrating both its 100th birthday as a brand and the 2002 Turbo’s 50th anniversary, BMW created the 2002 Hommage Concept for this year’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este that runs from May 20 to 22. It’s a retro-futuristic study that brings together BMW’s past – the 2002 Turbo – with its future – the M2 Coupe, upon which the 2002 Hommage Concept is based.  The low slung concept with the widened hips encapsulates some of the more notable styling traits of the original 2002, such as the single headlamps with ‘eyebrow’ turning signals positioned right above the slanted shark nose, and a horizontal band (in carbon fiber here) that wraps itself around the shoulderline to split the body visually into separate sections.  In another styling nod to the 1970s, the 2002 Hommage gets a deep front apron with BMW Motorsport livery and “turbo” lettering in mirror writing casts. It’s not all about the past, though, as the compact-sized study rides on a long wheelbase and chunky 20-inch multi-spoke wheels on low profile rubber.  “Exactly 50 years ago, the 02 range kick-started an era of success for BMW. This compact coupe is one of the vehicles which made the brand what it is today,” explains Adrian van Hooydonk, BMW Group Design boss. “The 2002 sat at the top of the range and was the first series-produced car anywhere in Europe to...

I’ll tell you what customer service is: it’s when one of your buyers says “Hey, make me that car!” and then you say “Heck yeah, sure!” That’s what Audi did for one unnamed (and no doubt deep-pocketed) European buyer who requested an Audi A8 extended limousine. It’s surprisingly quick, too! Yes, this big A8—a jarring sight to behold at first, but a surprisingly elegant one upon closer inspection—is a one-off for a single buyer. But the 19.7-foot long, 5,331 pound, six seat, six door luxobarge doesn’t look like any cheap hack job. Here’s how Audi says they did it: The Audi A8 L extended benefits from the low weight of the production model’s body, which uses an Audi Space Frame design and is made almost entirely from aluminum. For the built-to-order version the engineers extended the side sills and center tunnel using extruded aluminum sections. Inside the tunnel, these also assist with the air routing. A double rear bulkhead separates the passenger compartment from the luggage compartment; the roof incorporates additional aluminum profiled tubes and cross-braces. These measures provide torsional and flexural rigidity almost on a par with the A8 L. Still, you’d think with that extra heft Audi would have gone with a V8 for this A8. But no! It has the 3.0-liter supercharged TFSI V6 with 310 horsepower. And Audi says it propels this big limo from zero to 62 mph in just 7.1...

Hey guys, always liked 1960's era headlights and imagined they would look great on an ND. Did a quick mockup - what do you think? If you have any ideas for classic design cues for the ND try and explain them and I'll try to do some quick and dirty mockups :)

Watch a #Porsche 356 #Speedster and #Boxster #Spyder do absolutely nothing. It’s the most relaxing thing I’ve done in a while. This clip comes to us from a photographer called Drake. I really enjoyed the originality of the Speedster (down to the leather-wrapping on the Valentine One radar detector- nice touch) but the old car looks even cooler next to its late-model successor. Tire-eating is fun to watch sometimes, but I thought you might enjoy a moment to slow down and soak up some car porn while you wind down today.
