It was recently found that in a study based on sales data, white is the most popular color for vehicles in the U.S., beating out former frontrunner, silver, for the title. This begs the question: What’s the color you prefer on your vehicle? Read the rest of this entry »

You think you are a good driver? Check out this guy. He moves around this course like he’s driving a hovercraft on butter. Finally, someone who could probably give the Stig a run for his money. More info after the jump.
