1967 Shelby Mustang ELEANOR Movie Car (EBAY)

The ORIGINAL ELEANOR!!. This is one of the actual movie cars. There were 11 total production cars, of those , 8 were shells and 3 were actual running and driving cars. The 1967 Mustang GT500 stole the show in “Gone in Sixty Seconds,” the 2000 action hit starring Nicolas Cage.

The popular pony car is actually one of 11 built for the movie. Of those, two were destroyed in the climactic bridge jump and junkyard crusher scenes. Because certain cars were needed to do different maneuvers in the film, no two Eleanors were alike.

Jay Leno and his NEW 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8

Who else but JAY LENO, would get their hands on Dodge’s sexy new retro-themed muscle car the 2008 Dodge Challengers. JAY took delivery of his Black Challenger SRT8 on Monday, June 2, 2008, in Los Angeles. As you can see in the foreground, Leno also took along his orange/black 1970’s Dodge Challenger.

The 2008 Dodge Challengers have started arriving in dealerships across the U.S. While driving on the 401 in Toronto last night, I saw a whack of orange ones on a car transport headed WEST just past Milton, ON. It was unfortunately too dark to snap a photo which would have been sweet for this post!

Porsche 997 Facelift + SPECS Leaked

Porsche has apparently upgraded the 3.6 and 3.8-liter engines to direct injection making 345 hp (+20 hp), 390 Nm torque (+20 Nm) and 385 hp (+30 hp), 420 Nm torque (+20 Nm) respectively.

I consider these minor new upgrades more of a quick botox fix than a full facelift

NEW Colors
-Porsche Racing Green Metallic (metallic colour) replaces Forest Green Metallic
-Aqua Blue Metallic (metallic colour) replaces Cobalt Blue Metallic
-Nordic Gold Metallic (special colour) replaces Dark Olive Metallic
-Cream White (special colour) replaces Slate Grey Metallic

Upgraded Interior

The center console is restyled in black finish with modified air-conditioning controls and fewer switches. Navigation data is accessed via hard drive and the TFT display screen increase in size from 5.8 to 6.5 inches as well as touchscreen functionality.

Sport Chrono Package Plus in conjunction with the PDK transmission gets new functionality:

-Launch control
-Race-track gearshift strategy
-Additional ‘Sport Plus’ button

Speed Racer Movie MEDIA PICS Just Released !!!

Their first movie since THE MATRIX, the Wachowski Brothers supercharge a cartoon icon soon to be released May 9th 2008.

Entertainment Weekly has released a bunch of new images from SPEED RACER. They’re intersperced with some stills we’ve already seen. The images include automotive hijinks, and some shots of characters in action and inaction.

Speed Racer was invented in the 1960’s by a Japanese comic book artist named Tatsuo Yoshida, who named his manga and TV show Mach Go Go Go. An American TV syndicator bought the rights, Go was renamed Speed, and the re-dubbed series debuted stateside in September of 1967, spending nearly two decades in re-runs.
