This Just In: New on the Net

Magnum PI’s Ferrari 308 was the first super cool car I can remember seeing on the tube, so I’d like to wish a happy birthday to actor Tom Selleck, who was born on this day back in 1945. His mustache was born approximately 13 years later. Here’s the news:

  • Is GM still the largest automaker? That’s the question which has been rattling around automotive sites lately, and it might surprise you to see who answered no. Automotive News
  • Delphi execs won’t be getting such large bonuses this year, because the company just took a big chunk out of their bonus fund. Don’t worry, there’s still 132 million in there. Detroit News
  • Bob Lutz posted a picture of a ZR1 done up in Michigan State Police livery, and it looks pretty tough. If they made these standard issue, recruitment dollars could be used to beef up the donut budget. GM Fast Lane
  • Fisker’s plug-in hybrid was easily the sexiest thing at NAIAS, and there are rumors it might even be built in Detroit. Wired
