Inside Jay Leno's Garage


It' been rumored that Jay Leno was a former mechanic before he became the popular host of The Tonight Show., which lead to his obsession with cars. He has 3 garages with more than 50 cars ranging from vintage cars to modern bikes. There are 2 full-time mechanics on staff to assure all vehicles are working properly, although Leno does prefer to do everything himself.

Since being blessed with a parking spot in the NBC studios, Jay takes a different vehicle to work everyday. He refuses to have his cars become museum models, where they just sit around and collect dust.

Jay Leno does admit to not have any lust for these cars, but he states if he does see something he likes he will get it.

Your Dream Has Just Came True

Although, I really wish I can afford one of these beautiful vehicles and I presume that you do too. There still might be a chance for us to realize some of our dreams of owning one of these vehicles, by buying the minature versions of them, diecast models.

Over the summer I made 2 purchases of the excellent toy models, 1 being the 2005 Mercedes Benz CLS and the other was the 2004 Porsche Carrera GT both made by Maisto. And, I admit I am absolutely infactuated with the models and I plan to buy some more in the up coming months.

The site I made the purchases and plan to make more is at is IDcow.com.

Below is a new vehicle that is on the cover of the most recent Car and Driver magazine and the car I that I have my eyes set on getting pretty soon. Feel free to click on the link and check out the picture of it.

The Bat Mobile has Arrived


Have you ever wodner what the Bat Mobile would look like in the near future? Wonder no more...Here it is, the very sexy 2-door Maybach Exelero. Well at least that's what you would think if you saw it. Just by looking at the eyes (headlights) of this car gives this dark evil feeling. Out of all the Batmans, this is the one you do not want to &*%@ with. And, it's crazy that a lot of people do not like the new Exelero because of the look. Are the crazy??? The look is the selling point, its unique styling just begs for heard turns and I bet if seen on I-95 heads will turn.



Outside of just the look of this even more upscale Mercedes marque, under the hood has some pretty impressive things. Things such as a 700bhp twin-turbo 6.0 litre V-12, which enables the Bat Mobile to do 60mph in a little over 4 seconds. 1...2...3...4..Done! Impressive, huh? Also, it has reached speeds up to 218.3mph. However, there is some bad news this vehicle styled by German designs is only for promotional use and not for production. Fulda, German tire maker financed this car to publize the new Carat Excelero tire. But wait...There is some good news I just saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico.
