AJ scoped it out, and noticed that the bug is not completely hiding the Mustang's front fender
Same exact setting as the bottom photo, and the Mustang is smaller than the VW so it's possible that the vw is photoshopped over the stang

there is integral coolness in VW's... but it takes some work to make it show

Ever wonder how safe the roads are when old people can't see over the steering wheel? How safe can they drive when looking between the spokes?
Anyone know what the red letter "I" are about?
maybe these are just some new "thing" like the "Obey" photos of Andre the giant that were put up everywhere around San Diego

Frank in the Netherlands needed help identifying this car, what make model and year? Chrisoncars.com knew immediately what it was! Power of the WWW!!
It has a unique hood ornament that isn't in the Hood Ornament ID Guide http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/08/hood-ornament-identifiaction-guide.html
Chris http://chrisoncars.com/ knew exactly what this was
Hi Jesse,
The mystery car on your blog is a ’39 Matford. The Matfords were a joint venture between French maker Mathis and Ford. They came with either V-8/60 or V-8/85 power. I think this one would’ve been a 60 car. There are photos of other Mathis cars that have a more ornate grille. Those probably got the 85s. How I know this shit, I have no idea.
Regards,
Chris

The tires and rims display area at SEMA, the stuff that captured my attention
Hands free tire mounting! This isn't the only one on the market, but it was the first I've sever seen
This tire seat is comfortable too!
The yellow and red rims are interesting, I haven't seen any 2 spoke rim before... I wonder about the balance
The above was particularly impressive, good concept for a display
If you have balanced tires, like I have, you'll probably appreciate the full range of all the weights this company http://www.cnblueocean.com/ displayed. Myself, I'm impressed.

Hyundai i30 Cars Review
Even though the Hyundai i30 has not gone on sale in the European market yet, MS-Design already has a sporty bodykit out for it which includes a new front bumper and rear design, front lip, side skirts, rear skirts as well as a rear spoiler. A nice touch is twin exhaust tailpipes to match the new rear bumper design.
Porsche Panamera Wallpapers
Porsche has prided itself with developing a high-performance four-door which left no compromises to their legendary 911 sports car in performance and quality. As automotive press and the first owners got their hands on the Porsche Panamera late last year, the German sports car builder was satisfied that real-world reviews have validated their creation of the more passenger-friendly Porsche. A less turbulent launch than the Cayenne, Porsche has awarded sports car fans entering 2011 with a lower-priced, V-6 powered Panamera variant as well as a special factory opportunity to tune the vehicle. Under the Panamera Personalization Program, a new level of four-door Porsche excitement can be explored.
Starting with the new Sport Design Package, the exterior enhancements comes as either the Porsche Exclusive or Porsche Tequipment upgrade available on any model of the Panamera lineup. Both upgrades add an unique front fascia, side skirts and rear diffuser for an individualized look from the stock Porsche Panamera. With the factory-approved body kit, set of light alloy 20-inch multi-spoke Panamera Sport wheels can be added with the Sport Design Package. Offered in the colours GT Silver Metallic and Black, the Porsche Exclusive-fitted Panameras can opt for the wheels to match the body colour.
