James Bond 007 Aston Martin DBS Crashes into Lake

James Bond’s $260,000 Aston Martin DBS crashes into Lake Garda in Italy on it’s way to the set of the upcoming James Bond 007 film, “Quantum of Solace”. CNN.com reported the incident just recently stating that the driver of the Aston Martin was taken to a hospital with minor injuries. The accident was more than likely caused by the heavy rain storm during the time of driving the vehicle to the set of the film.
Look for the newest James Bond 007 movie “Quantum of Solace” to be released later this year.

Top 12 Worst Gas-Guzzling Cars

With gas prices reaching ALL-TIME highs and yet another raise of the prices to a national average of about $3.40 over this weekend, you may wonder why and how some people ride around in gas guzzlers. Well, simply put, they can not only afford the car payment but they can actually afford to drive them (afford the gas).

Next time you see kids looking out of the window at an SUV barreling down the highway going about 90mph, just imaging him or her saying “daddy, they are rich”. You ask why the kid would say something like this? Well, if you can drive that fast in an SUV then you must have a good cash flow to pay for the $4-a-gallon gas that you are burning up ever-so-fast.

Here is a list of CARS to stay away from (for now while gas prices are high) because of the horrendous amount of gasoline that it consumes. But then-again, if you can afford some of these cars then you probably are not too worried about the price of gas YET.
