Corvette C7 makes its debut in Gran Turismo 5

We can't remember a manufacturer letting the public 'loose' in a prototype quite so far ahead of a car's launch before.

Fiat Panda gets 2010 updates

Fiat has updated the Panda for 2010 Underrated though the Panda is, it’s actually a pretty good little car.

So Fiat has decided it’s time for a bit of spit and polish and some new make-up, so it’s given the Panda a bit of an update for 2010.
