    Joining Toyota in the continuing trend of setting up shop in Second Life is Germany's own Mercedes-Benz. This Tuesday will see the launch of not just a showroom for the luxury cars, but an entire island. The vehicles themselves aren't ready for a test drive just yet, but a track will be available for when that feature rolls out. Which is a shame, really, as we were already planning our Second Life adventure in ghost riding.Those who stop by for the grand opening can enjoy not only an in-game concert but some free swag as well. Anyone who visits can pick up a free Formula 1 racing suit and helmet, which will quickly be utilized in the red light district in acts that we could not possibly begin to describe here.

    While these flashy Peugeot concepts won't buck the trend of sports cars resembling electric shavers, one of them will be coming to a Xbox 360 near you via Project Gotham Racing 4. You may recall this contest from last September when it served as the unofficial announcement of PGR4. Not that anyone thought Microsoft's flagship racer wasn't getting another sequel, but hey, it was nice to know.The winning entry itself will be chosen by Peugeot, but that doesn't mean you can't choose the winner ... of your heart. Not all the vehicles look better suited for proper grooming as there's even a three-wheeler amongst the like of off-road warriors and tricked out 360 logos running on marbles.So which are you dying to take for a test drive? Do you think J Allard partakes in ghost riding his whip? Discuss.
