Won't Somebody Please Adopt the Ecto-1?
Two years ago, a kindly fan in Tennessee rescued this Ecto-1 car, a Caddy decked out as the Ghostbuster-mobile that was used for years in a Universal Studios ride. He's kept it in pristine shape, but now he just can't keep it around. So he put it on eBay. For just $27,000, you could adopt this excellent automobile with a venerable history — as long as you're willing to ship it from Tennessee. There are tons of great pictures on the eBay page. [Ecto-1 via eBay] Thanks, Randy! -

Death Race Is Car Porn For A Dystopian Internet Age
Death Race is full of awesome exploding car-fu, but it's in the service of a crash course (sorry) in dystopia for the Internet age. The race in question is a prison game which nobody can ever really win, webcast to millions of viewers who might as well be in prison. In fact, Death Race is a good object lesson in why subtlety is overrated. Even the fact that Jason Statham only has one facial expression helps keep the movie's bleak message alive. Click through for spoilers and details and stuff. More »
