Autos & Motorbikes

Ready for a mouthful? Okay, well, somewhere out there in the world, there is a company called Herpa Miniaturmodelle GmbH, and although it sounds sort of like a highly contagious disease or something, it is actually a car company that specializes in making full scale models. This is notable because at a fairly recent Frankfurt auto show — the IAA, actually — the company revealed the Trabant nT concept, which is totally electric.

This car is a modern take on a more classic car, although I have to say that, as far as the exterior goes, the only thing really modern I see is the rather boxy shape. That’s not a slight; I think the vehicle looks awesome. I am just saying that this so called modern take could be taken a bit deeper — but at the same time I am glad it is not.

Now that Christmas is over – I can tell you that people are gearing right up for the Detroit Auto Show next month and I can tell you that it is going to be absolutely beautiful and a ton of different cars are going to be there.  One car that I am particularly excited about is the Fiat 500C.

This car is a car that I have not only been waiting to see but it is a car that looks awesome!  The small, compact feature of it is truly something that fits right in where the future is going in the way of cars.

Personally – I think that the Fiat 500C is going to be the highlight at the Detroit Auto Show and I can’t wait to see it up close and personal!

My favorite female poker player, Vanessa “Maverick” Rousso has shown once again why she is one of the most interesting and most exciting poker players of this generation: she just bought herself a beautiful deep yellow Lamborghini Gallardo – and she looks great in her Pokerstars/GoDaddy attire driving it, I’m sure.

Here’s a video of Vanessa and her brand new Lamborghini.

Congratulations, Mrs. Rousso!
