As I mentioned earlier, Ryan and I were in LA over the weekend, and while driving through Bel-Air ogling the RIDICULOUS houses and cars, we spotted little miss fancy pants Paris Hilton. She was, of course, driving her Bentley Continental GT Convertible (not the pink coupe we saw at SEMA) and we, of course, snapped a few pics. Sorry for the quality guys, but I almost peed my pants.

In one of his recent campaign ads, John McCain compared Barack Obama toParis—famous for being famous—Hilton. Well, Paris apparently wasn’thappy about it, and has fired back with an ad of her own. The spot details her energy policy, and while the whole thing is pretty funny, the description of McCain—"he’s old enough to remember when dancingwas a sin, and beer was served in a bucket"—is hilarious. Anyway, here’s the news:

• Unless you’re making high-end luxury cars, it’s a tough time to be in the auto business. Even the mighty Toyota is laying people off. 800 contract workers in Japan have been let go. Wall Street Journal
• The Lotus Evora is probably going to get a supercharger, which will boost power to around 400 horsepower. While that’s all well and good, maybe they should just put the camo back on this design disaster. That car was so much cooler when it was "Project Eagle" and nobody knew what it looked like. Autocar
• Packard made some gorgeous machines back in the day, and now the rights to the luxury marque are up for sale. Do yourself a favor and don’t look at the prototype. Damn, it’s ugly. Automotive News
• Next-gen versions of Porsche’s Cayenne have been spotted in the wild, and you have to admit, the uber-powerful SUV looks a lot better when it’s riding low. World Car Fans
