Spotted on an Ohio Freeway, this heavily customized Angry Birds-themed car is either a great meta-commentary on distracted driving or merely the most Internet relevant donk since the Facebook Caprice. More »

Benjamin couldn't help but appreciate the irony of getting stopped in a Crown Victoria by three Impalas. Although we don't know what happened next, we assume the Dallas PD savegly beat him for no reason. [Twitpic] More »

These rims were spotted holding up a G-Body in front of Mease's Custom Car Accessories near Youngstown, Ohio. They manage to defy both reason and function. What are those, spoked sixties? (H/T to Matt!) More »

Straight from the West Coast, The Scrayper Boyz bring us on an intellectual journey through the world of highly innovative automobile customization. Or a dirty donk rap video. You be the judge. NSFW. More »

40 inch rims on a Regal called Donkey Kong — you see what they did there? We're practically speechless, this is certainly a sign of the end times so we feel there should be commentary here, but on what? Where do you even start? Our cup of questions overflows. Maybe start with where does one get wheels like that? And how do you even install tires that big? Can they be balanced? Is the car equipped with an air suspension and if so, does the car get even taller, or does it settle down for easy entry? What does a roll center look like on a car that tall? Does Ackerman steering still apply? Have they accounted for all of the first and second order harmonics in the damping? These are all things we need to know!

Remember Autorama last spring? Remember the insane Caprice/Rolls Royce Phantom mashup that sported 30-inch wheels? Now, nearly a year later, we can show you photos of how the creation was created. Seems the fellows at Spate—and here comes that word again—Creations are master sculptors, as the entire nose was preformed in closed-cell foam then skinned with fiberglass. Translation: That's some goddamn creativity! We also get details on exactly what kind of money went into creating this one-of-a-kind...ahhh yeaaahhh...creation! More »

The New York taxi as we know it has been around for 100 years as of this Wednesday. Some of the Crown Vics in the medallion fleet look as if they've been around for twice that long. Not this one. The crew at RIDES have built a skyscraper cab to celebrate this historic anniversary. The Donk-o-Cab will be on display at the New York Auto Show, and may be pressed into service post-show as a genuine New York City medallion was part of the build up. Just don't let the 30-inch spinners hypnotize you into paying too much fare, especially if the Mooninites are driving. Full press release after the jump. – Mike Bumbeck More »

The FoMoCo lot here in sunny, Southern California is three blocks east of Compton [Frightening side note: there's a Compton trailer park one block off the freeway]. So, whenever we cruise the 710 to pick up the latest metal from Dearborn (or Hermosillo, Mexico) we peep many young bucks cruising one-handed in massively-rimmed rides. And, existing in the form of ignorant honkys as we do, we always referred to the jacked up Regals as "Donks." Not so fast uncle salty. More »

Remember that super-annoying commercial, where a whole litany of kids and adults would say, "Yoo Hoo!" in succession for nearly a minute? We're picturing this donked Yoo Hoo mobile crushing all of their skulls with its 27" rollers. Except for Yogi Berra, we like him. He can live. Mwahahahahaha. More »
