Hey GM - ya might wanna reconsider...
Just before GM decided to kill the Pontiac brand, rumor had it that GM is repositioning Pontiac as a “niche” brand. Susan Docherty, vice president of Buick-Pontiac-GMC, gave us hope that Pontiac may survive and the brand may go back to its performance heritage roots with a new version of the Trans Am Firebird.
Well, that’s not going to happen now is it.
However, where there’s a will there’s a way. Tuner ASC Creative Services is offering a conversion kit that transforms your 2010 Chevrolet Camaro into a Pontiac Trans Am for those that are sad to see the historic brand go.

I'm really getting into this...
For years I have been addicted to photographing cars. Last winter I went on a shoot with Shannon and got the urge to shoot people. Now I want to do it ALL the time. My biggest hold back so far is finding subjects. Awhile back I received an email from someone who was interested. We met up a few days back and here are a couple of shots. Her only request was something "edgy"...

Should I be disappointed...
Ok, big news flash here - I have never seen one Star Trek movie, TV episode, or video game. It never really appealed to me, but when I saw the new Star Trek trailer I got kinda excited. Now, I'm just not sure...

Dude, where's my car...
A design student made a battered old Skoda "disappear" by painting it to merge with the surrounding car park.
Sara Watson, who is studying drawing at the University of Central Lancashire (Uclan), took three weeks to transform the car's appearance.
She created the illusion in the car park outside her studio at Uclan's Hanover Building in Preston.
The car is now being used for advertising by the local recycling firm that donated the vehicle.
'Just amazing'
Ms Watson, a second year student, said: "I was experimenting with the whole concept of illusion but needed something a bit more physical to make a real impact."
She was given the Skoda Fabia from the breaker's yard at local firm Recycling Lives.
Owner Steve Jackson described her work as "amazing".
"When I first saw the photos I was convinced it was something which had been done on the computer," said Mr Jackson.
"But when you look more closely you see the effort and attention to detail she has put into it. It is just amazing."
