This Just In: New on the Net

By John Coyle

Editor

Sunday, CarDomain’s editorial team is jumping on a plane and heading to Sin City for SEMA. I always have a blast at the show, and I’m totally stoked. But because everything is so crazy there, and I’m going to be running around like a maniac, New on the Net will be on hiatus next week. Look for the its triumphant return on Tuesday, November 11th. I’ll probably be sober by then. Anyway, here’s the news:

  • Over the past year, more Marines have died riding sport bikes than have been killed in combat. As a result, the Core is has started a training program to teach jarheads how to handle the obscene power of modern crotch-rockets. CNN
  • What do Volvo’s safety mobiles and Aston Martin’s V8 Vantage have in common? Well, they both use the same key, and Aston hasn’t tried very hard to hide the fact. Peel off the butter leather on the Vantage fob and you’ll find the Swedish company’s name stamped right on it. Car Magazine
  • Hyundai has released the full stats on the Genesis Coupe, and they’re pretty impressive. So guys, when do we get our test car? And please make sure it’s the turbo, with a stick. GenCoupe
  • One of CarDomain’s advertisers—you know, the folks who provide themoney to keep yours truly employed—wants your input. So if you love theblog and love CarDomain, or kind of like us, or even just love to hateus, we’d appreciate your opinion. Take this Survey
