Well it's no secret that the automotive industry is going green, so Jaguar has created a concept super car called the C-X75 which will run entirely on electricity.

The car was announced at the Paris Auto Show in September. Jaguar says it can post a 0-60 time in only 3.4 seconds and that it will keep going to a top speed of 205 mph.

According to a report from topspeed.com Fiat, the current owners of Ferrari, are planning to sell part of the Ferrari because they are planning to spend the extra dough buying up some of Chrysler.

Still though, Fiat will in all likelihood remain majority owners of the 3.3 billion dollar automaker known for making supercars that look brilliant in red.

According to the report one of the companies that may be looking at buying some Ferrari stock is Volkswagen. Volkswagen already owns Bugatti, Lamborghini, and Bentley so why not go after some of Ferrari right?

Before the F1 race on Saturday Felipe Massa said that he would be willing to let Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso win the race if that's what it came down to.

According to a report from TSN, if Massa had let Alonso pass him (or if any other driver allowed a teammate to pass in order to win the race) to win, he could have been facing jail time.
