Amanda Beard is one hell of a swimmer, racking up two gold medals at the Olympics and eight U.S. Championships. But she's also got a dirty little secret — she loves El Caminos. Even though she doesn't own one yet, she's plotting her next move and tells Autoweek all about it. The boys over at AW use the combination of athlete and car to make an argument for powered sport in the games, but we don't see that happening. Besides, the X-Games is already doing it, and you know how international organizations hate to look like copycats. (Thanks for the tip vwminispeedster)
