Bentley returns to racing with Continental GT3 (2012)

Think of Bentley and you might immediately imagine weighty, vaguely sporting luxury cars. Think racing and Bentley, and a 1920’s Blower Bentley pounding around Brooklands might pop into your head. But Bentley is going to try and change that, taking the brand back to the race track with the new Continental GT3 racing car.

Corvette C7 makes its debut in Gran Turismo 5

An unusual one, this: from today, gamers playing Gran Turismo 5 will be able to test drive the new Corvette C7 - two months before it's revealed to the world at the 2013 Detroit auto show. The makers of GT5 on PlayStation have modelled a camouflaged 'Vette C7 with Chevrolet's approval. We can't remember a manufacturer letting the public 'loose' in a prototype quite so far ahead of a car's launch before.
