Bromance, Car-Guy Style [GM Hearts Jalopnik and Vice Versa]

Bromance, Car-Guy Style [GM Hearts Jalopnik and Vice Versa]

These days, everyone's a-Tweetin', PR peeps included.

So we're used to a regular diet of links, photos, and the occasional Deep Thought from the indefatigably outgoing Travis Parman of General Motors, who spends an enormous amount of time re-Tweeting comments on the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro.

And, when he's not overseeing a small army of hollow-eyed, undernourished bloggers chained to chairs and cranking out posts every 8.5 seconds, dashing and cleancut Jalopnik editor and man-about-town Ray Wert curates selected comments and pithy thoughts in his own Tumblr blog.

But lately, it's begun to look like Ray and Travis are more than just colleagues....

Video: Lambo LP 670-4 SV Torments Tarmac

Happy Friday the 13th y'all. Check the feral Lamorghini LP 670-4 SV above, eyes glinting through canted headlights, wailing 12-cylinder heart breathing through straked gray vents. This thing looks like the automotive antidote to the Batmobile as it drifts in a murky underground world, a bad-boy automotive villain if ever there was one.

Compared to the sexy LP 650-4 Roadster featured earlier today by Richard Read, this hardtop sports an inverted paint scheme that screams maniacally for attention.

Lambo promises that the LP 670-4 SV will be "the fastest Lamborghini ever built." Jalopnik muses that "nuns everywhere are getting excited over...

Gaywheels Wants To Know: What's Your Ride?

Gaywheels.com has dragged a lot of data out of the closet since its launch in June 2005.  Prior to its existence, it was easy to fall back on stereotypes when describing what the LGBT population drove (Lesbaru anyone?).  Then the site began publishing what their users were researching and that data put a dent in what was long assumed about the gay and lesbian driver; cars like the Toyota Yaris and VW Rabbit held the most popular position in their quarterly "Top 10 Most Researched" list and a Subaru has never made it on the roster.
