This Just In: New on the Net

Ah, Friday the best day of the week. Of course, it’s even cooler when you get to leave work early, and that’s exactly what I’m doing today. Good times. Anyway, here’s the news:

• I think that bikes and cars can—and should—live together peacefully. So when cyclists do stupid things like ride across all lanes of the freeway it really pissed me off. What a great way to screw up a bunch of people’s day. Seattle Times
• The General is wading into the American Axle fiasco, and it’s bringing 200 million dollars with it. Think this development has anything to do with the strike at the Malibu plant? The cash will go mostly toward employee buy outs. Automotive News
• I’ve always loved cut-away cars, and I’ve long wanted to see somebody make a functional one. This   "clear" Subie a UK dealer made is the closest I’ve seen anyone come, and I think it looks dope. CarScoop
• A spy video of the Aston Martin Vantage V12 RS has leaked, and wow, does it look hot. The vents in the hood just make it look vicious. Leave it to Aston Martin to make my dream car even dreamier. Motor Authority
