Betty White, Bobby Trendy, Alec Baldwin, And Other Friday Fun Stuff
It’s been a busy week at Gaywheels — behind the scenes, anyway — but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been paying attention to all the shenanigans going on outside our Fortress of Solitude (aka The Server Closet). Here’s a quick recap of some of the car stories that’ve caught our eye over the past few days. You’ve got nothing better to do on a Friday, right?

Cadillac comes out during the NY Auto Show
In a first-of-its-kind event – and something we hope to see a lot more of in the future – Cadillac hosted a reception geared towards the LGBT community during this year’s New York International Auto Show. Gays and lesbians from a wide range of professional backgrounds rubbed shoulders, talked cars, and clinked cocktail glasses at this ground-breaking soiree.

Mercedes-Benz ponies up for LGBT viewers
Yesterday, a reader pointed us to a press release announcing Acura’s sponsorship of World Team Tennis — the implication being that Acura will gain some brand recognition among LGBT sports fans. But we’ll see Acura’s advertising bet and raise it by Mercedes-Benz’s sponsorship of the U.S. Open and Sex and the City II.
Top that.

2010 Toyota Prius, revisited
Despite all of the Prius’ supposed run-away dreams in California and elsewhere, the high-tech wonder from Japan continues its reign as the best-selling hybrid of all time, with over 1.3 million sold to date. Ten years ago, it defined what a practical four-door high-efficiency car could be. Now in its third-generation, the Toyota Prius still rides on top of the segment it created.

Monday morning video: “Construction Bear”
There are two kinds of people in this world: people who admit they hate Mondays and liars. For the former, here’s a little something to jump-start your work week: a new ad from Volkswagen featuring one fairly burly bear and a jackhammer. Check it after the jump.
