The 2010 Pirelli Calendar – the 37th edition of the annual cult classic – made it’s world debut in London. The collector’s item calendar was shot in Brazil and is the work of photographer Terry Richardson. For the calendar, he portrays a woman who is captivating because she is natural; a woman who plays with stereotypes in order to undo them, and who makes irony the only veil that covers her. This is a return to the natural, authentic atmospheres and images of the 1960s and 1970s.

Sign us up to be cops if we could parole town in a Nissan GT-R police car like those part of the force in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. This 485-horsepower supercar made its world debut at the recent Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and is one of the fastest cars in the world, holding the record for the fastest four-seat production car in terms of acceleration. It can sprint from zero to 62 mph an hour in just 3.5 seconds. You’d have to be on a suicide mission if you tried to outrun the cop driving this bad boy.

Audi’s entrance into the high performance market with its R8 really set something off for them. Fans have asked for more high performance variants and they’ve responded by introducing the R8 GT3 and the street legal R8 V10.
