Gomez+Hudgens+Benson+Mopeds= Gangsta

Posted on March 26, 2012 by The Mechanic

Go ahead folks, just try and tell us that you wouldn’t poop your pants in fear if you saw that hardcore moped-gang rolling down the street of your small town? Vanessa Hudgens (star of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island ), Selena Gomez (star of the entire Disney Channel and Justin Bieber’s arm), and Ashley Benson (from Pretty Little Liars) have apparently started some sort of jean-short-clad biker gang under the guise of shooting Spring Breakers. Yeah, we know that they’re not driving cars, so please, don’t be that guy in the comments that points that out; we’re trying to protect you folks. We don’t want to hear stories about how this Mongol-style crew of bad-asses rolled down mainstreet, engines blaring, and burned your town-square to the ground! Go ahead, laugh all you want, but when you get kicked in the chest with a Hello Kitty flip-flop and maced with body-glitter, you’re going to be crying…so you won’t be able to laugh…because of all the tears…yeah.

Rupert Grint’s Ice Cream Truck Is Awesome

Posted on March 23, 2012 by The Mechanic

As a result of his playing ‘Ron Weasley’ in the Harry Potter films, Rupert Grint is worth way more money than just about any other member of ”Young Hollywood” that you’re going to see.However, unlike the rest of the celebrities his age, Rupert Grint didn’t spend a boatload of his money on a flashy car with all sorts of unnecessary customizations. Instead, he spent some of his initial Potter-cash on a Mr. Whippy Ice-Cream Truck from 1974 in order to fulfill his lifelong dream of being an ice-cream man, a dream he fulfills in the least creepy way possible. He keeps his truck fully stocked and when he gets bored he drives around giving out free ice-cream to little kids. Imagine if you’re a ten year old and you’re out playing one day, and Ron Weasley shows up to give you free ice-cream; that’d be a solid story to share on the playground.

John Goodman’s Rides Are Impressive For Different Reasons

Posted on December 28, 2011 by The Mechanic

John Goodman, star of Monsters University, ParaNorman, You Don’t Know Jack, and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is a man of the people, an everyman, and his choice of tranportation proves it. Most of the time, despite his incredible wealth, you can find the Golden Globe Award winner (he won for his famous role as ‘Dan Conner’ on Roseanne) running around the streets in a 1997 Ford F-150. Why? Because he’s as awesome in real life as we’d all hope he is. He has also been seen running errands in an early 2000s Mercedes-Benz S500 with an “ABIDE” sticker on it. The “ABIDE” sticker is in honor of his iconic role as “Walter Sobchak” in The Big Lebowski, which as we all know is one of the greatest comedies ever, and featured the line, “The dude abides”. So yes folks, Walter Sobchak drives around in an old pickup and an old Benz, literally the exact cars that you’d think he drives. John Goodman is awesome, end of story.

Ashley Greene’s Audi

Posted on November 23, 2011 by The Mechanic

Ashley Greene, who many of you know as “the girl in Twilight that’s not Kristen Stewart”, is part of the long list of stars who have decided to go to the Audi dealership to satisfy their luxury car needs. Greene, who you can see in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Butter, and LOL:Laughing Out Loud (she’s alongside Miley Cyrus in that one; if you add a Jonas brother and someone from Glee, copies of Tiger Beat might actually start bursting into flames), has chosen to drive herself around in an Audi Q5. The compact crossover SUV probably cost Greene about $45 thousand if she got it fully loaded (which she almost definitely did), but it’s far cheaper than some of the cars other celebrities her age are driving around in, and it’s extremely safe. Between her Audi, and Kristen Stewart’s Mini-Cooper, we have to give the Twilight kids (cartoon idea! It would be like Muppet Babies, only with vampires, and terrible) some credit, they buy good cars for good prices.

Kate Gosselin’s New Audi

Posted on September 14, 2011 by The Mechanic

Kate Gosselin is the worst. Seriously folks, she’s like everything that’s wrong with society rolled up into one doofy looking package. The latest proof of why she deserves to be getting the collective stink eye from America comes in the form of her new car…her new sports car…her new two-door sports car…she has eight kids! Despite the recent cancellation of Kate Plus 8 and her recent People interview where she complained about her financial problems, Kate went out and bought a brand new Audi TT; a car that set her back at least $50,000. She already has an expensive SUV for when she wants to actually bring her kids somewhere, so I guess she just up and decided that she needed to blow more money she doesn’t have to buy another car for when she wants to leave her kids at home with…wait, she a single mother. Kate Gosselin and her car can stick it.

Ahman Green’s Trunk

Posted on June 13, 2011 by The Mechanic

Some people keep a shovel in their trunk, others keep some extra clothes, and personally, I have the entire contents of my closet. Former NFL star Running Back Ahman Green has entire football stadium…sort of. Taking his school pride to a whole new level, the former Nebraska Corn Husker has made his car into a rolling cheerleader. Painted in the red and white of his alma matter, the dodge magnum also sports matching 24 inch rims and in the trunk…a model of Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium, so he always has an eye on his old stomping grounds.
