Published | Updated

Kendall Jenner looks like she's starring in a remake of "American Graffiti" ... tooling around in a classic, awesome '57 Corvette Stingray.

Kendall was behind the wheel as BFF Hailey Baldwin rode shotgun Tuesday in Bev Hills.

We're told the car was a present for Kendall's 20th birthday ... a present she gave herself.

Fact is, 1957 was one of the most epic years in auto design history, with the Vette and T-Bird leading the pack.

Unclear what it set her back, but $70k would not be out of the question.

Brandon Jenner I Don't Believe in Car Jinx

Published | Updated

Brandon Jenner is clearly not superstitious .... because he got his dad's hand-me-down SUV -- the one that triggered a fatal car crash.

We're told Caitlyn gave her son the Escalade after it underwent some serious body work.

Brandon needed a safe ride because he's now carting around a wife and new baby. The SUV is certainly road tested. It smashed into 2 cars on PCH in February ... a Lexus and a Prius, yet the damage wasn't enough to total it.

It passed the crash test for sure ... still a little weird.

A witness who was at the Seahawks facility during Tuesday's crash says Fred Jackson was revving his engine at another driver before both cars rocketed down a 1 mile stretch ... leaving no doubt they were drag racing.

We spoke with Jason Hellervik -- an autograph seeker who was waiting for players at the facility when he saw Fred's black Corvette pull up to a stop sign next to a red Dodge Charger.

"They were both stopped at the same time, they both revved their engines and they both left without stopping," says Jason, who was with his buddies at the time ... "We were like what are these idiots doing?"

Hellervik says he was with 6 other guys at the time of the crash -- who all witnessed the apparent drag racing scene -- and none of them have been contacted by police. He says if contacted, he would definitely cooperate with investigators.

For his part, Jackson says he was not racing anyone.

As you can see in our pics and video ... Jackson's teammates Marshawn Lynch (driving a white Jaguar F-Type convertible) and Richard Sherman were some of the first people on the scene. You can see them trying to help Jackson open the doors on his 'Vette after the accident.

The Game is NOT the type who forgets people on his way up the ladder ... just ask Diddy, who's got the keys to a new Ferrari to prove it.

Game was doing some shoe shopping in L.A. this weekend when we asked him about a bigger ticket purchase. Diddy bragged about his red Ferrari from Game on their new track together, "Standing on Ferraris."

Floyd Mayweather 1st Pics Of Replacement Jeep ... Gator-Skinned Seats!?

Published | Updated

TMZ Sports has the first pics of Floyd Mayweather's replacement for his fire ravaged custom Jeep ... and we gotta say ... the dude sure knows how to bounce back.

As we previously reported ... Floyd lost 4 whips due to a freak blaze in Arizona earlier this month, one of them being his prized 2015 Jeep Wrangler which he'd spent over $100k to customize.

News of the fire traveled down to the Auto Firm in Miami -- who tricked out the first Jeep -- and owner Alex Vega immediately promised Floyd a bigger, better ride to cruise in.

From the look of the pictures we got ... they delivered.

The new Avorza Jeep features custom alligator seats -- plus a touch screen navigation and entertainment system. Total cost for the upgrades, $120k ... $20k more than version 1.0.

One thing this Jeep doesn't have that the old one did? Doors ... Floyd decided he didn't want any this time.

Maybe a good idea ... you know ... in case you know, fire.

'90210' Star I'll Change Your Flat, But No ... We're Not Gonna Hang Out

Published | Updated

"90210" hunk Matt Lanter nailed the role of a AAA tow truck driver by coming to the rescue of 2 teenage girls -- one of whom is hoping the run-in will be her big break in Hollywood.

The girls thought they were totally screwed when they got a flat in a Sherman Oaks, CA parking lot -- but Matt was Johnny-on-the-spot ... and offered to help fix the flat.

When it was all done, he gave one of them his manager's number when she slyly -- and wisely -- mentioned she's an aspiring actress. Her luck ran out when she asked Matt how she could get in touch with him.

All she got was his Snapchat info ... plus, the tire-change, of course.

HERE'S THE DEAL ...
TMZ.com

Ray J's fight over his breakfast tab was more serious than we thought, because it turns out it wasn't HIS car he got towed ... it was his girlfriend's, and the key to her luxury ride is STILL missing.

As we reported, Ray J had a dispute with the staff at Kitchen24 over his bill, and cops were called -- but what we couldn't figure out was why a tow truck got into the whole mess.

Short story, long -- Ray J left the key fob to Princess Love's Mercedes-Benz in the restaurant when he left, but was still able to start the car and drive off. It has one of those fancy key-less starters, and the car was close enough to the restaurant that it started.

Everything went downhill after that ... ending with AAA taking away the Benz.

Listen to Ray's explanation. Two things are clear -- 1. He thinks someone in Kitchen24 still has his key, and 2. Princess Love is gonna tear him a new one.
