As you watch this 14 second video, ask yourself who is stupider. Surely the car driver. But the car DID signal, at least I think I see the signal on. Yes, he did cross two lines. But where was the biker really looking? I think he was looking at the people at the bus stop. If he didn't have a decent bike I might even think this was staged.

Well, all the Camaro buildup is finally set to amount to something this Monday, when the real, final car is unveiled. Frankly, it was getting anti-climactic before the official photos leaked onto the web on Friday afternoon, but we'll look forward to hopefully seeing the SS car in the metal. That one's been conspicuously absent from all the photos that crammed the internet as soon as the dam burst. Anyway, whether you go for an RS with that punchy DI V6, or the SS with its LS3 power, chances are you'll be a happy camper.

In the wake of the much anticipated web debut of the SL 65 AMG Black Series earlier today, several videos and a fresh photo album are following close behind. In the video above you'll see aggressive driving scenes on a race track, but the SL 65 AMG Black Series somehow doesn't appear to unleash the fury that lies within - 661hp to be exact. We'll let you be the judge.

Imagine driving along your favorite road and then all of a sudden you are falling towards the middle of the earth. Well maybe not that far but I'm sure there might be thoughts of hell and brimstone flashing before your eyes. Here is a video for your friday enjoyment of a poor fellow who was aimlessly swallowed up by a sink hole. Not the greatest footage and there isn't a live feed of him falling into it.

It being Thursday night and all, we'd be surprised if you haven't scrounged the interwebs to find last Sunday's Top Gear episode - the most review-rich show in over two seasons. Hammond pitted the Audi RS6 Avant against a duo of downhill skiers, the Mitsubishi Evolution X and Subaru Impreza WRX STI battled it out for the umpteenth time and Clarkson found an eager dance partner with the Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black. It was a show that reminded us of why we fell in love with Top Gear in the first place, even though it fell short of the high-water mark set by its previous small-screen masterpieces (DB9, Veyron and the V8 Vantage vs. 911 vs. M6 on the Isle of Man, just to name a few).

BMW GINA Light Visionary Model in motion
The automotive community has clearly been impressed with the GINA Light Visionary Model concept that BMW unveiled this week. The fabric-covered concept with its winking headlights, blinking gauges, mouth-like hood, and unique ability to shape shift by moving its metal-and-carbon-fiber skeleton via electro-hydraulic actuators is marvelously creative and practically ingenious at the same time.

We told you about the Electric Vehicle Association of Greater Washington DC (EVADC) bringing the "Power of DC" to Hagerstown, MD this past weekend. Well, despite some rain, it sounds like the event was a success. They managed 144 combined runs and 15 cars races over two days. Top speed hit in the quarter mile was done by the "Juiced Up" dragster with an impressive 131 mph. Although there aren't pics or video posted at the Power of DC website yet (coming soon) there are some links to media coverage. One of those links features an article and some decent video of the event so, in case you don't live in the vicinity, you can talk a gander and see some of what you missed.

Video of Nissan's newly-mined 7:29 Nürburgring lap time has now surfaced on YouTube. The video comes courtesy of a fan recording a television screen at what looks to be a Nissan event display. The background noise is rather overbearing, but if you crank up the volume it is possible to catch a hint of the squealing tires and screaming engine. Those are the same street tires available off the showroom floor, along with supposedly stock engine specifications.

This BMW X3 TV commercial gave us a good laugh today with its overly sarcastic humor. It depicts a guy driving an American SUV (it looks like a GM model) who suddenly hits the brakes only to see the body of his vehicle flying away thus uncovering the truck hidden beneath it. Now if only we had to show you a countermeasure ad featuring the BMW X3 attempting to go off-road.

Caught up in the excitement of showing off the all-new TT, Audi officials neglected to say anything about the 2007 Audi A4 and high-performance S4 Cabriolets parked next to the stage. No surprise, really, since these cars are only getting a refresh. This is the same refresh the sedan and wagon versions of these cars received in mid-2005, with the most obvious change being the adoption of Audi's mouthier grille design...more click on heading
