With the increase of gas & the decrease in automotive spending, I think we’ll be seeing more of these small car companies popping up, such as the new car company, Ronn Motor.

Ronn Motor Company is truly on top of their game with this new hybrid sportscar, the Scorpion.  The main thing to be wowed by in this vehicle is the news that it can go from 0 to 60mph in 3.5 seconds and gets around 40mpg.  Now, if we can plug it in at night, that would be a real dream come true, eh?

The Scorpion is being produced in Texas & should be available for purchase come fall.

Testing is already underway for the RR4 car & we can see that this new model of Rolls Royce is maintaining the long hood with high beltline.  So, what do you think of the new vehicle?

Batman has everything:  the ability to fly, get the girls & drive the cars.  Not only does Batman get to ride around in his oh-so-cool Batmobile, but in the upcoming Dark Knight movie, he also gets to have some fun behind the wheel of this 640hp Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.  Talk about having everything… what would you get Batman for his birthday anyway?

Being very pleased with Batman’s choice of alter-vehcile, Lamborghini released a statement saying, “The Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 is the natural choice for Bruce Wayne’s other car.”

Well, duh!

Have you ever looked at the Rolls Royce hood ornament & wondered who this mystery lady was?  Well, thanks to actor Christian Bale & a new film called The Silver Ghost, your wondering will no longer go unanswered.

Named the Spirit of Ecstasy or The Whisperer, the Rolls Royce ornament actually has a very juicy tale to tell.  Born out of a love scandal between Lord Montagu of Beaulieu & his attractive secretary Eleanor Thornton, this emblem is a lasting impression of their passion.

Who knew that all this was going on in that hood ornament?  No wonder a Rolls Royce is so sexy!

One of the first luxuries to go during an economic downturn are luxury cars.  While gas prices continue going up, luxury car sales continue their downward trend.

Reports are coming in that March was the 5th straight month of the luxury car sales crunch.  I guess we need to go out & buy a few Porsches to stimulate this decline…..
