The digital landscape has changed considerably since we launched the site in 2007, with the growth of social media tools such as Facebook and Twitter replacing forums as a way to communicate with like-minded people.

Right click images while you can, they will not be there forever.
Nothing is more temporary than the Internet in my opinion.
Back to interesting cars, or at least unusual views of boring cars.

While aerodynamics has long been put to work in automotive design to improve performance, the art and science of making motor vehicles "slippery" is now focused on miles per gallon, not miles per hour.

Like an airplane, the underside of an automobile is as important to its passage through the air as the top and sides. Chapman continues, "The car has lots of ground effect, and there are lots of improvements that can be done on the underside for tremendous aerodynamic gains. The problem in the past has been that customers have not been willing to pay for things like panels that fill gaps on the underside that they can't see."
