    Where do you get your automotive news?

    I want to start a master list of where we (FinalGear members) get our automotive related news. I only know of a few sites, so I wouldn't mind finding out some new sites. Please post your links and I'll update the list as more come in. I read Autoblog and Jalopnik on a daily basis (rarely link to the sites they get their stories from).


    --FinalGear Automotive News Source Master List----

    www.thecarconnection.com used to be a great place for industry news, but now it's changed, and the only thing useful on it is it's blog

    www.cardesignnews.com is a great car site dedicated to experienced and budding designers out there, their members exclusive content is fantastic (I used to subscribe), but sometimes they have a bunch of really good stuff for non members to see as well. Check out the portfolio section for some really cool design ideas and concepts.

    www.egmcartech.com sometimes has a few news articles that haven't been picked up by others

    www.seriouswheels.com when I'm out looking for a few quick numbers or pictures of specific cars. Not really a news site, but specifications come in handy every now and then.

    www.bmwboard.com forums for any news/info regarding bimmers, since I haven't been driving my car for a long time, I haven't visited there in a while either... I should go back and give them a shout

    I got banned from there for calling out the brainless fanboys. It got to a point where I didn't bother debating with them, and just insulting the posters. I also continuously corrected their so called "Agents" for misinformation and bias, and they eventually decided they had enough of the one guy who called it as it was .
