This Just In: New on the Net

Personally, I think golf is kind of silly. I’ve never played, I don’t have any desire to play, and I think the world would be a better place if 75% of the world’s courses suddenly became go kart tracks. But it’s still awesome watching a pro beam someone—on purpose!—with a golf ball. That’s just funny as hell. Anyway, here’s the news:

• So I liked Hyundai’s new Genesis sedan, and I honestly expect to like the Coupe. Obviously, both are an attempt to change the company’s budget image and move up market. But I was still a little surprised to see Prada—like, the $500-pants Prada—will to be crafting a special edition for the Seoul Motor Show. CarScoop
• Along with the 510, the 240Z is regarded as one of the first truly collectible Japanese cars, and expectations are high for the release of the new 370Z. To get everyone up to speed on just how the model has changed across its many generations, check out this killer design dissection. Jalopnik
• There are actually lots of things happening in the automotive world, but if you’re Robert Farago, the only thing worth covering is the bailout of the Big Three. And while it must be lame for him to realize Uncle Sam might help the companies he so despises live to fight another day, for those of us who like the idea of domestic vehicles, it’s actually pretty cool.

• Nissan’s GT-R has won the ‘Most Advanced Technology Award’ in this year’s Japanese Car of the Year awards. Are you as shocked as we are? Of course you aren’t, but I still thought it was worth mentioning. Congrats, Godzilla. Motor Authority
