I'm guessing it's Paul and Ringo

This one's just a simple matter of laziness on the part of the writer.

A recent Joystiq post boasts the headline "Full Driver: San Francisco car list has two Spiders, two Beatles and a Hornet."

Did you see it? Here it is again, with my usual markings on the errors:
Full Driver: San Francisco car list has two Spiders, two Beatles and a Hornet

It seems Mr. Schramm was trying to be clever and list the cars named for insects in his headline, but instead named the influential British band. It would have been a simple matter to look at the full list, posted in the article itself, to see the correct spelling.
