"The Driver" - Official Trailer

Maggie May

Years ago, the scooter was held at the bottom of the “cool” list. It usually meant you couldn’t afford a car and also you probably didn’t have any girls beating down your door. In recent years though, the Honda Ruckus has changed the perception of the scooter as people have started modding them due to their affordability and availability of aftermarket parts. Now you can find Ruckus’ that are lowered, stretched and swapped with a whole array of mods.

The little lady sitting in front of you now is “Maggie May” which was built by the guys at Standard Functions (South El Monte, CA). “Maggie” not only makes you want to get out of chair and go buy a Ruckus right now but it also shows you that a scooter is now a cool option for cruising the town on a nice day. “Maggie” also features an extensive mod list covering everything from looking good to going fast.

1979 Lamborghini Countach LP 400 / 1981 Pontiac Trans Am

Just listen to that Lamborghini Countach rev… OH MY GOD!! That sound to a car guy is like crack to a drug addict. The 1981 Pontiac Trans Am unfortunately wouldn’t have had a snowballs chance in hell of keeping up with the big Lambo… but who cares? It’s one of the best movie openings ever for a car guy, plus you had Adrienne Barbeau constantly showing off her “Equipment“…

Ford EVOS

Ford Evos Concept is not just a design-led exercise. It also embodies the global Ford product development team's move to design and develop vehicles as more than just an interior and exterior, or a collection of attributes.

The concept’s technology experience embraces a new generation of driver interaction and awareness currently under development in the Ford Research and Innovation laboratories. Seamless connectivity between the vehicle and the driver’s ‘personal cloud’ of information is at the heart of the vision for its capabilities.

With information from the cloud, the vehicle can provide the same connected lifestyle the driver experiences at home or office. The car knows the driver, and automatically adapts handling, steering and engine controls to deliver an exceptionally dynamic driving experience.
Ford researchers are focusing their efforts in this area to deliver on four key customer benefits: personalisation, seamless enhancement of the driving experience, looking after the driver’s well-being and delivering smart electrified powertrain optimisation.
