We like to tell British car jokes, but the best ones tend to focus on the maker of notoriously unreliable electrical components for those cars: Lucas Electrics aka The Prince Of Darkness! More »

Slap 'em into either the comments on the original post or e-mail us at autoinsider@jalopnik.com for the “GM-Chrysler Merger Mashup Photoshop Contest”. Now, get out there and Photoshop us some crazy Monte Chargers and Corvipers or whatever for your chance to win the XBOX 360 game and a copy of the 10th season of Top Gear — and remember, as always, that standard contest rules apply. Oh, and that entry above? We're calling that the 300Camino! More »

All this talk about a GM-Chrysler merger has caused us to think; What if, instead of loan guarantees from the feds back in 1979, Chrysler had approached GM and asked them to be their angel of deliverance. What would an alternate universe be like if GM and Chrysler were already merged? Would the automotive landscape be the same? Or would it thrive with Plymiac Azbrings and Dodgy Challamaros? Maybe a Town & Camino or two? We don't know — but after the GEM mashup last month and the SLR Guy back in June — we know your creativity knows no bounds. So grab your digital #2 pencils and fire up Photoshop because we’re challenging YOU to create this alternate universe. Give us your best creations because we’re giving away a copy of Baja: Edge of Control for XBOX 360 and the 10th season of Top Gear from iTunes to the most creative, awe-inspiring General Mopar creation out there. And no, we don't mean creating your own lineup — we've already done that. Let's give you an example — hit the jump for all of the details and for our own mashup — the Challamaro — to show you what we mean. More »

In a stunning come-from-behind victory, Spens PeaBot has bested the competition in the GEM Peapod Photoshop Contest. As a result, Spen will be receiving the iPod Touch donated by the folks at GEM for his labors. The competition was fierce, with Orca Pod jumping to an early and commanding lead, but the PeaBot kept on truckin', racking up votes over the duration of the poll. Congratulations Spen, your masterful work has won the day, and to all who entered but didn't win, thanks for the great entries. Below we've broken out the voting among the top three entries and given one last look at the complete field. More »

Once again our readers enthusiastically answer the call, this time to chop and rework the GEM Peapod. The resulting 42 entries range from cute and cuddly Peapods to nightmare fuel Peapods — and everything in between. Browse through the entries and pick your favorite based on skill (or amusing lack thereof), clever use of the Peapod and plain old amusement factor. We're not going to sway the judging, but there are definitely some standouts. Anyway, good luck, and may the best photoshoppers win. More »

Well, this crazy mixed up SLR Guy photo chopping game has been a laugh riot, but all good things must come to an end. After a marathon gallery and a follow up with all the late entries, we've finally cut off submissions and it's time for you to make the final choice. Today we pitch our fifteen favorites and we'll let you vote on who takes home the fabulous prizes. That's right we said fifteen, hey, you try narrowing it down to only ten when you get well over three hundred entries — some of them were just too good to leave out. So without further ado, and in no particular order, the SLR Guy greatest hits. More »

When we tossed the idea of a little photoshopping to celebrate the greatest achievement of SLR Guy's life — smashing up a $600,000 Mercedes McLaren SLR — we expected some pretty amusing responses. We did not expect 127 responses and counting. What we also learned was that although we don't think it's possible to actually die from laughing, it is possible to partially lose consciousness from lack of oxygen. We've collected all of the current entries into one mega-gallery after the jump and we're still accepting submissions (send them in to ben@jalopnik.com) for a top ten best entries tomorrow and we'll poll to figure out the winner. That is if we haven't passed out again. More »

Let's say you're out in the Italian countryside with your bestest, wealthy car collector buddy and he lets you behind the wheel of a $600,000 Mercedes McLaren SLR. Of course, being a douche, you'll find it necessary to take a shot of yourself in front of said SLR posing in your most douche-like stance after you've just wrecked it into a pile of bricks. Yes, you are that guy. Seeing as this bright young chap's "after" picture is readily photoshoppable, we believe it's time to create a legend out of this d-bag — this — "SLR Guy." Below you'll find how you can help — as well as our own crack at showing off our newly-found P-shop skills. More »

To say the Scion Hako Concept went over poorly with the Jalopnik staff would be something of an understatement. Every time we checked the front page we'd recoil in horror as the Hako scrolled past on the screen. It became the generic stake by which other cars were measured. "At least it's not the Hako" was heard more than once. Now, considering the depth of photochopping skill we see from Chrysler here on a daily basis, we're betting you guys can do better than the awkward and boxy "American vintage style" Scion touted at the New York Auto Show.
