The guys at Maisto Toys sent me this present the other day that I wanted to share with you guys. It is from the Premiere Edition 1:18 diecasts which you can find online. I cannot even show you the box because I ripped it open so fast and promptly placed it to my desk instead of in my diecast car collection. The silver SLR McLaren has a hood and trunk that open and really is quite an amazing replica of the real car. The under hood work is fantastic and detailed showing the Mercedes 5.4L supercharged V8 engine. Add these 1:18 diecasts from Maisto Toys to your wish list!

A Steal on a Bugatti Veyron – Price Reduction to $800,000 [BUY NOW]

May 15th, 2010

Remember this Bugatti Veyron we showed up for sale on ebay a few months ago? The story was called “The Million Dollar Car Market Isn’t What It Use To Be……..“had the car for sale on ebay at $999,980 Buy It Now Price. Well if you re-visit the listing right now with only 4 days left they have dropped the Buy It Now price to $985,980.00.

I really love this color combination on the Bugatti but it seems they just cannot sell the thing. I got really excited when I saw that it was going for $800,000 now on Craigslist. Something tells me they wouldn’t sell it to you for this amount but we screen capped the ad anyway. Get a steal on one great looking Bugatti Veyron if you happen to be in the market. Pretty sure if someone closed deal at that price you would be looking at the cheapest Buggati Veyron in the world.

Craigslist Sale: Bugatti Veyron Chassis #80 at $997,000 – Worse than Ferrari Enzo on Craigslist

Bugatti Veyron for sale on Craigslist

Jalopnik I am pretty sure a few weeks ago tracked down a Ferrari Enzo in Texas that was on Craigslist. An even more pathetic listing is this Bugatti Veyron for sale in Burbank, California. I love how these dealers list $1,000,000 cars on the same website with missed connections/casual encounters as their upper class super car. Then they complain about all the flaked buyers……….. perhaps upgrade your listing to Jameslist when you have some spare time? Enjoy the screen cap because we are guessing this will come down like the Enzo listing.

When your in Las Vegas, Nevada for a convention, booze filled weekend, or just a relaxing vacation you need to add the Imperial Palace Auto Collection to your list. In fact, visit the website for a free ticket you can even print off if your truly on a budget for your stay.

The Auto Collection sprawls a whole floor of the Imperial Palace parking deck that they sealed off and provided a proper setting for hundreds of classic cars. Most of the collection is for sale so if you hit it big at the roulette table then clearly this is where you should head before you lose it all. I have already been twice this year and some new cars have come in and cars have been sold and rotated out. With that being said you should really make sure you visit once a year I would say and it will be a whole new experience. Our photographer Ricky Cervantes snapped some photos inside the Auto Collection for you to enjoy.

Bank of America Financing Has Arrived for Tesla Roadster

July 14th, 2009

A major break through for the electric supercar OEM Tesla today comes from Charlotte, North Carolina. The major bank will offer financing packages for the Tesla Roadster. With a retail value around $100,000 you would be looking at a $1,650 payment roughly with a $20,000 down payment, the $7,500 federal tax credit, and 7.7% financing over 60 months. It looks like the goverment loans Tesla got are helping some people out there take them much more seriously as a car brand.
