Feel like buying the General Lee “LEE 1″ today?
That’s what we thought. In that case, it’s still time to get your hands on the original Dodge Charger used during the opening credit of the Dukes of Hazzard, and patiently restored to its original condition by General Lee Enterprises. In 2009, it will be exactly 30 years old and become even more pricey (the price isn’t up, but we assume it’s pretty high).... Read More
Smart car to be the next A-Team van?
Yesterday, we told you about the A-Team movie, scheduled for 2009. So when we found this lovely Smart car, we thought the producers had blown a fuse. Don’t worry too much though.

Will Smith hunting deers with his GT 500 in I am Legend
We actually don’t know if those are actually deer, but it sure looks like fun and Will Smith doesn’t shoot any (for one moment we thought he was trying to run them over), so it’s safe to watch, even for animal lovers or PETA members. Way more exciting than driving for two hours in the woods in a beat up Bronco and wait for the prey to show up. You can see... Read More
