Check out Michael Vick talking about his new car site. No, really

/
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has quite a checkered reputation on and off the football field, and he's become as notable for his activities away from the NFL as he has his performances on the gridiron. One thing he hasn't been that well-known for, however, is his interest in automobiles. That may change, however, as he's just opened a website dedicated to motor vehicles, ShowMike.com.

"I love football, but many fans may not know that I am a big-time car enthusiast," Vick relates.

The website is billed as an interactive online showroom, where you can see other celebrities' cars. In addition, you can create an account, upload pictures of your own car, truck, SUV, motorcycle, ATV or boat, and interact with other enthusiasts. Every week, Vick says he'll pick his favorite vehicle uploaded to the website and feature it on the home page.

If you want the lowdown on the site from Vick himself, check out the video below, where you can also find a press release.

PHILADELPHIA, P.A. (October 31, 2013) – NFL superstar quarterback Michael Vick launched a new interactive auto online showroom website called ShowMike.com.

ShowMike.com connects car fans with celebrities' rides. You can view cars from famous athletes, entertainers and Hollywood stars. Vote for your favorite or maybe get some inspiration when you are ready to customize your ride in the garage. ShowMike.com also features "Vick's Picks," where Vick selects a new top ride every week.

"I love football, but many fans may not know that I am a big-time car enthusiast," said Vick. "I've met a lot of famous people in my career and I asked some of them to join me. Have you seen Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie's car? Now, that's a ride."

Car enthusiasts can contribute to ShowMike.com by adding rides, uploading pictures, and joining groups. Viewers can search and engage with other ShowMike.com members and see what other custom work ShowMike.com members are adding.
