The New Chevy Camaro In A Skittles-Like Rainbow Of Colors, What's Your Favorite?

Although we've already seen the 2010 Chevy Camaro revealed in three colors, the crazy kids over at CarScoop have decided the new Chevy Camaro RS needs to be seen in more than just plain-Jane colors like red, yellow and silver. They've Photoshopped a veritable Skittles-like rainbow of colorgasmic flavors for the new Chevy Camaro. Check out the front ends over here, then head on over to CarScoop to check out the hot rear action. Although we''re partial to pink on the new mullet-mobile, what's your favorite flavor? Better question — anyone want to take a few moments in P-shop themselves to mock up what colors and decals you'd drop atop Chevy's new muscle car? We'll do a post showing off the best tomorrow afternoon before the official unveiling at 4:00 PM EST.

2010 Mazda3 Concept Fully Revealed... As A Photoshop

Remember yesterday's twin front and rear images of what we had assumed was the concept form for the 2010 Mazda3? Today we get nine full, high resolution walk-around photos of the handsome five door — and they're photoshopped. This amazing work was done by a chopper named Grif-1, and debuted on the Russian design site "Render." Grif-1 used 3D Studio Max and Photoshop CS3 to create a near-perfect execution of the Nagare design language, sprinkling in enough hints from previous concept cars it was easy to believe the car was real.

The End Of The Douchiness Is At Hand, Now Vote For The Best "SLR Guy" Entry!

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.

The Legend Of SLR Guy Continues

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 »

Douche Wrecks Mercedes McLaren SLR, Thus Is Born "SLR Guy"

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 »

New BMW M1 Exists Only In Imagination Land

This image popped up over the weekend being touted as a prototype BMW M1 snapped during a candid moment in a Spanish hanger. As we all know, major automakers regularly keep priceless, top secret, never before seen but completely finished supercars stored in regional airports, without camo on them. Well, there was that one time. But this time something seemed amiss. As this would be a fantastical development, especially in the wake of the surprise BMW M1 Homage reveal at Concorso d'Eleganza at Villa d'Este, we took a second look at it. Something seemed...just a bit off. More »

Scion Hako Redesign Contest, Let The Battle Begin

We tried, we really did. We just couldn't cut the entries from the Scion Hako Redesign Contest down enough to make this voting process even mildly manageable. We apologize if your entry got left on the cutting room floor, but we were inundated with chops that ran the scale from amazing to amazingly awesomely bad. What we're left with is a set of forty of the best, worst, and most amusing redesigns for the fug-nasty Scion Hako. Since there are so many entries, we're going to let you narrow things down a bit. To keep things fair we stripped the names off and we're not going to name names on this round, just so some of you more popular hooligans don't win by sheer wit. Browse through the gallery and pick out your favorite, make a note of the number above the image and vote away. We'll take the top 5 vote-getters and have a vote-off tomorrow afternoon then send the winner some rad hats.

Redesign The Scion Hako Concept - Win Some Scion Hats

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.

Hooked on Photoshop Works For Dodge?

Eagle-eyed reader Eywolf noticed something peculiar yesterday morning when we ran the new 2009 Dodge Challenger images and press release. After our fearless leader was lambasted by Chrysler PR for what seemed like hours over our suggestion the press images for the Chicago Auto Show unveil of the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 had been massaged to enhance reality, it seems there may be further p-chopping on the latest batch of images in an apparent attempt to deceive the muscle-loving public into believing Chrysler has more than one color available for the Challenger save money. We took the time to create an animated gif of two of the images in question — one, a 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 from Chicago (in orange). The other, a purported image of the 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 (in white)...

The 2008 Subaru Impreza: Real? Fake? Photoshopped? Yes.

Oh, the tangled web. Let's take a step back from what has become The Great 2008 Subaru Impreza Photos Question of 2007 and see if we can get this straight. 1.) Motor Trend published photos of the redesigned Impreza, taken by its own photographers, in its May issue. 2.) An early recipient of said magazine scanned the relevant pages and put the images online for greedy eyes to scrutinize. 3.) Edmunds created what copyright lawyers might call a "derivative work," using Photoshop to change the color and the background of Motor Trend's photos. 4.) None of it really matters — other than to copyright lawyers — because the car is the 2008 Impreza. Please continue to be happy or sad as the case may be. The question remains, Who should online travelers blame/skewer for this? Motor Trend? Edmunds? Subaru's selective media relations practices? Copyright lawyers? The producers of "According to Jim"? Exactly. [Extra credit to our boy Hammer for the image.] More »

Wagons, Ho! Imagining the Return of the Country Squire

Considering the growing interest in old-school station wagons among lurkers of the collector-car market lately, it may be a matter of time before Detroit reintroduces the wagon to minivan-weary car buyers en masse. Designers of shoulda-coulda cars, CWW Design, is already on scene, with a range prospective Magnum-beaters from Lexus, Mercedes, Rolls, Plymouth (er, in a parallel universe) and others. Yes kids, buy stock in the fake-wood paneling market now, before you miss the runnup. More »

Jalopnik Photochop Winner! Kevin M., Come On Down!

While we received many artistic and delightful submissions, those who know the Loverman in the flesh know that the winner can only exist in the form of Kevin M. Shopping Jonny's head onto Larry the Cable Guy's bloated body is the masterstroke. Jonny's actually physically upset by the image. So much so he might be is sending Kevin-boy some back hair. In a sense, all who participated and lost are winners as, well, the Loverman's back hair is disgusting. All your addresses belong to us, Kevin. More »

Jalopnik Photoshop Contest: Winner to Receive Lock of the Loverman's Chest Hair

In the above photo, devoted Jalopnik reader John Furst brilliantly played upon Jonny's love of his own face and dislike of oversized "dirt-haulers." Can you best Johnn's noble effort? Note: In the event that the Loverman is unable or unwilling to part with any of his chest hair, the winner of the contest will get a clipping from Davey's beard. Send entries to tips@jalopnik.com.

The New Microbus?

Reader Scriv (Bators?) just flipped us his photochopped rendition of what a 2008 VW Microbus might look like, given the People's Company's penchant for incorporating Toyota-esque cues into its recent designs, including the new Jetta and the to-arrive-in-'08 Passat four-door coupe. Could it be, children? Could it? More »
