This summer, Paramount will unleash the sequel to the Transformers Movie called 'Revenge of the Fallen'. As with the first Transformers film that was released back in 2007, General Motors will make its presence felt with an array of models that will include the Chevrolet Beat and Trax minicar concepts. We're not sure if the two Chevys will transform into robots, but you can take a sneak peak at both cars in the video, which was shot during filming in Philadelphia, after the jump.
So what happens when one isn't satisfied even with the 425-ponies of the range-topping Dodge Challenger SRT8's HEMI V8? Well, one solution is to bring the car to the folks over at RDP Performance.

According to the company, the RDP Challenger SRT8 can hit the quarter mile in 9 seconds - a whole second faster than the Bugatti Veyron...

BMW has confirmed through a new teaser video - to be exact, in the description of the video- that the forthcoming X5 M (see the teaser film of the prototype model here) will be joined by an X6 M model that will be introduced later in the year. In this latest video, for the first time BMW reveals that both the X5 and X6 M will share a new 'M' prepped twin-scroll turbocharged V8 engine combined with a rear-wheel biased all-wheel drive system.Up until now, the most powerful variants of the X5 and X6 models are equipped with BMW's new 408HP 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, something that leads us to believe that the 'M' variant of the V8 will deliver an output well over the 500HP mark. Our sources state that BMW will also use this engine on the next generation M5 and M6 models.
Stupidity comes in many forms. In this case, it comes from a young man who thought he could hold a beer can in one hand and push a Ford truck that was performing a burnout with the other. Not surprisingly, he slipped and the spinning rear-wheel of the pick-up truck matted with his arm for a few painful seconds - if anything else, this had to hurt. But at least he didn't spill his beer...Thanks for the tip Sam!
GM has released the first official video of its new BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLK rival, the 2010 Cadillac SRX.

In this video, a police car attempts to pull over a large truck on a Chinese highway but the trucker constantly keeps swerving around blocking the officers from overtaking him. Even though the trucker's actions threaten not only the life of the police officers, but also the safety of people in other cars that happened to be on the road, the whole scene is deliriously funny. Watch the video below the fold.
