Can the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V Do Burnouts?

We can’t actually answer this question until September 24 at 12:01 AM, so you’ll just have to check out the gallery after the jump and judge for yourself. Our review of the 556 HP, 551 LB-FT, 191mph, 0-60 in 3.9 second 2009 Cadillac CTS-V will go live then. And, before you ask, no, just like the 2009 Corvette ZR1 burnout, this wasn’t me. This time, it was one of our commenters. More »

More Troy Paiva Photographs Of The Pearsonville Junkyard

We were all knocked out by LostAmerica's (also known as Troy Paiva) nighttime photographs of the legendary Pearsonville Junkyard And Racetrack, and now there's a whole new batch available for you to pore over while pretending to work. Who can identify all the vehicles in these photos? [Troy Paiva Photography]

59 Old Vehicles Down On The Streets Of San Francisco

This is Down On The Street Bonus Edition, where we check out interesting street-parked cars located in places other than Island That Rust Forgot. Today we're going to check out some of the work of San Francisco photographer Martin Taylor, who was actually paying attention in photography class when they taught all that stuff about composition and color that I was never really able to figure out. The photo above of the New Yorkerpage Camper Special alone would be enough, but those of you who make the jump will see dozens more great shots (and read Mr. Taylor's descriptions).

66 Drives: Scenes From Western Roads

I've always enjoyed shooting photos on California's highways, but never had the guts to get close-up shots of the occupants of nearby cars and risk dome-ventilation courtesy of road-ragers' firearms. Photographer Andrew Bush, however, does have the guts, and he's been rewarded with an amazing collection of photographs. Most of these photos were shot in California between 1989 and 1997; make the jump to check out the entire gallery, then check out the artist's site to read the captions. Bonus points to the reader who can identify the make/model of the largest number of cars!

A Case Of Junkyard OCD?

While I can't claim to be a junkyard photographer of Lost America's caliber, I do my best to capture junkyard images that tell a story. The other day, I went to the local yard... More »

Pearsonville Junkyard Erased, But Not Before Lost America Captured It On Film

We love junkyard photographs, and Troy Paiva, proprietor of the Lost America site, has shot some amazing ones at the now-defunct Pearsonville Junkyard in the Mojave Desert. There's no Photoshop trickery here, just long nighttime exposures and colored lighting. Make the jump to check out the whole gallery, at which point you'll probably want to spend the rest of the morning checking out Mr. Paiva's other work. [Flickr]

May The Ford Be With You: The Art of Cedric Delsaux

It's a good thing Photoshop didn't exist when I was a kid, because if it had, these images would have blown my fragile five-year old mind. Cedric Delsaux adds Star Wars characters to otherwise mundane cityscapes, highlighting their alien nature and in the process combining my two biggest adult childhood obsessions: cars and Stormtroopers. The only thing more, you know, Jalopnik would be if he'd included either a DAF or a FAF. Still, an Imp isn't too shabby.

Crazy Japanese Interchanges Look Crazier From Underneath

Google Earth does a mighty fine job showing the essence of crazy interchanges, but if you really want to know how ridiculous interchanges can be, check out the underneath view. These interchanges don't come from China, but rather the neighbor of Japan. Ken Ohyama is the man that has captured some of Japan's most efficient traffic clusterfucks. Not only do you get to see the underside of these engineering marvels, but Ohyama is pretty damn good photographer, as well. Check out the gallery below with some of his select works or follow the link to see the entire Flickr set.

KITT In Action: Exclusive Video

Yesterday, Ray and Wes met KITT in the flesh— er, metal. Today we bring you the video footage of us doing our best Hasslehoff impression during our exclusive Brooklyn rendezvous. The new Knight Rider made-for-television movie premieres tomorrow on NBC, so our test drive ride just came right at our peak of anticipation. And while we still kinda agree with the "never meet your childhood heros" rule, we've gotta admit that the supercharged Mustang GT in GT500KR clothing looks and sounds pretty sweet.
