Here are some pure gems from this year's annual international auto show.

An American tourist has visited North Korea recently telling the stories behind the photos and what he learned about the country. I find his story one of the most fascinating I ever had to read about North Korea and its capital Pyongyang.

Lazareth LM 847 is bike created by Lazareth Motoring, a French/Swiss bike and automobile constructor. It is powered with a V8 Maserati engine, has 4.7L of displacement and makes 470 hp. The bike doesn't have a gearbox, but instead it has a hydraulic coupling rations 457 lb-ft of torque to the dual rear chains. This machine is something out of this world.
