I used to use cars like Aka_Bar explained. Tuned-up cars that are made for street racing: streamlined, full of color and decal, shiny rims, a good-looking spoiler, upgraded front/rear/side bumpers, and perhaps even a carbon fiber hood. Those cars look awesome as a desktop background.
But about a year ago, I watched a video in school about the race to break the sound barrier and it got me thinking of planes and sonic booms. So after much searching I found a super high quality picture of a jet plane breaking the sound barrier (you can see the cloud of "smoke" around the plane), right over the ocean near the beach. I like it so much it's been my desktop for over a year. So if you ever get bored of cars, try looking for planes - the sleek look of a jet makes any desktop come alive.
