| 911 Club Coupe in traditional Porsche "Brewster Green". |
Based on the Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe, the VERY, VERY, VERY limited edition 911 Club Coupe in "Brewster Green" (I know it sounds like a dog’s name, but they are a German company) comes with all the hot bits including the classic “duck tail” as well as more grunt from the boxer engine that’ll shift your butt from 0 to 100 km/h in...wait for it: four seconds. Of course there’s all the other cool stuff that comes with your Club Coupe which you can check out here. Now did I hear you say “I want one!” or was that “I’d kill for one?” Whichever it was, you can apply online. But there’s a catch. Unfortunately only 12 World Porsche Club members will have the opportunity to own one via a lottery. So all that’s left to say is good luck, or as the Germans would say: “Viel Gluck.”

Are diamonds the new black?
 |
| Bling it on. |
Is your matte black Mazza, Ferrari or Merc looking a little dated? Well, why not give it some bling by coating it with diamonds. I kid you not. There’s a German company by the name of Gemballa that’s developed a process for coating the outside and inside of your ride with real diamonds. According to Carbuzz.com they’ve figured out a way to grind diamonds down so they can be applied like paint. Gemballa hasn’t let on how much it will cost to give your car a finish that’ll blind your neighbors, work colleagues, mates, wives, girlfriends and enemies, but you can bet it won’t be peanuts.

Was the Tin Lizzie the world’s first eco-friendly car?

| Henry Ford and one of his T-Model Fords. |
Henry Ford’s original T-Model could run on petrol (fossil fuel) and bio-fuel (Ethanol), so what happened? Why have we been running fossil fuelled cars for the last 104 years? Former mining guru turned energy entrepreneur Danny Williams will give us his take on alternate and renewable fuels in an upcoming post. Stay tuned.

Bullitt’s back!
 |
| Just in case you missed the original. |
This time it’s not Steve McQueen as Lt. Frank Bullitt in his ’68 Mustang, but the cast and crew from Fox's Alcatraz who were in San Francisco for a few days to shoot scenes for their season 1 finale with a car chase that replicates the one from the movie Bullitt. Also, if you’re a fan of the movie (and do you know anyone who isn’t?) why not rock-up to the “Friends of Steve McQueen” Charity Car Show benefiting the Boys Republic June 2 at Chino Hills, CA for a supercharged day out.
