8 Cool Economy Cars To Cop in 2012

In my list of 2012 Hot Cars for 2012, I emphasized cars you most likely could not afford. (Unless of course you run a hedge fund.) Don’t be disappointed because I have put together a list of 8 Hot Cars in 2012 You Can Afford. COED readers can rejoice knowing that there are quite a lot of great vehicle offerings aimed directly at a youth market now. The sparse, small, and cheap econoboxes in the past that automakers used to offer will not suffice a more finely tuned young person’s demanding tastes these days. Automakers have begun to get extremely competitive and it shows with all the great new vehicles available on the market. Best part about it, these are all cars that are within your financial reach if you have a somewhat decent job… Just don’t ask me how to find one in this crazy economy. I just know about cars!

Note: All prices quoted here are base starting prices.

6 Hot Cars For A Hot 2012

Well, 2012 is upon us and that means a whole lot of hot new cars. (Don’t worry. the wonderful and awesome staff at COED will make sure to bring you plenty of hot girls in 2012 too!) What do I mean by “hot cars?” Well generally anything fast, slick, looks amazing, and stirs the soul. All these cars and supercars fit that description. Most of these cars you will probably never drive, unless you have a fat wallet. Hey, COED’s not about showing you cars and girls you can obtain, but ones you only wish you could “be in”. Here are many cars you will want to drive in the new year, but probably will just have to dream about.

5 Must-Drive Rides for “Go For a Ride Day”

November 22nd is Go For a Ride Day, which means you should go find the slickest ride around and legally commander it (try to ignore all those bad habits you picked up from GTA).  I’m not talking about your buddy’s stupid, “Wanna-Be Tuner” car he modified.  We all know he just had money to buy 4 rims and 4 tires.  That’s it!  Also… maybe some flame graphics or something else like that.  Unfortunately this doesn’t count as a slick, cool, or awesome ride. There are many slick rides that I am sure you want to ride in,but we’ve narrowed down the bucket list of must-drive rides to five. Check out our picks in our slideshow below.

This Supercar Museum Will Really Rev Your Engines [PHOTOS]

Most museums, let’s face it, are boring. Sure, you might have told your girlfriend you liked going to that art exhibit, but deep down we know you hated it.  You didn’t understand all those abstract paintings that were really just big squares of red, blue, and green. I suggest you check out The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, as it will change your opinion on museums.

The Petersen has cool exhibits about the history of cars, the Batmobile, motorcycles that were owned by Steve McQueen, and tons of other amazing vehicles. They have an immense collection on hand and exhibits are always changing, meaning that even repeat visitors can always find something new and exciting.

The best part of the museum by far is the exhibit entitled, “Supercars: When Too Much Is Almost Enough” which showcases supercars in all their glory.  When I visited the museum last summer, it was hard to contain my excitement.  Ferraris and Bugattis and Maseratis, oh my!  It was the best museum I ever visited!   The only thing that would have made the supercar exhibit better?  Supermodels in the Supercars. Check out my photos of the awesome exhibit below!
