Honk Mortgage Sticker (Bumper)

First to recommend

Description

I think this is intended to be anti-Obama. But, having drunk the kool-aid, I know that Obama can do no wrong and I'd be paying for your mortgage no matter who were in office.

2009 Audi TT-RS

First to recommend

Description

Michelle has a TT 225. It's almost as fun to drive as a 911, and much more comfortable and practical. This new RS version ought to best the base Porsche on all levels.

Kiwi Fuel Saving Device

Description

This nifty gadget turns saving gas into a game. The Prius has this a game like this built in, and I have to admit it was pretty addictive, trying to keep it over 50MPG.

2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI

First to recommend

Description

The new WRX STi looks a lot more grown up than the old STi. That's not saying much, but I think I could own this car and not feel like I was wearing a fat gold chain around my neck all the time.

SAAB Turbo X

First to recommend

Description

I've owned three SAABs over the course of my life. The interior, ergonomics, and versatility can't be beat.

But lately they've been seriously outgunned in the performance sedan department. Here's hoping the all-wheel drive Turbo X can help SAAB regain some of their past glory.

Audi A1

First to recommend

Description

I love the techno-goodness of the Prius and I love the boy-racer feeling of the Mini. The 2009 Audi A1 looks like the best of both worlds. With 147 lb-ft of torque coming from the electric motor alone, this baby should really scoot around town. (via thisnext.com)

RUF 3400 K Porsche Boxster and Cayman

First to recommend

Description

I saw one of these at an autocross event this weekend -- mostly from the back. The owner says the conversion leaves a car that is not just 100HP more powerful than the Cayman S, but is just as comfortable to drive around town.

I think the added body details look pretty sweet too.

As if the RS4 weren't already spectacular enough. MTM has added a supercharger.

Toyota Prius

23 people recommended this item

Description

The Prius is a joy to drive. It's quiet; it's packed full of technology; it has lots of room for rear-seat passengers and cargo; hybrid cars get BETTER gas mileage in city driving than in highway driving; hybrid cars have great low-end torque; and if you're a greenie, you get that self-satisfied feeling every time you press the "Start" button.

Noble M400

First to recommend

Description

Yes it costs twice as much as a Lotus Elise (assuming you choose to pay somebody else to assemble the kit). But it just might be twice as fun. It doesn't look half bad either.

Just be careful: It's so barebones it doesn't even have anti-lock brakes. (via edmunds.com)
