MVC3 how to post a list within a class in controller?

Question

I have a class:

public class CarList
{
    public int quantity{get;set;}
    public List Cars {get;set;}
}

public class Car {
    public string Name

I think this is the issue:

@foreach (Car item in Model.Cars)
       {
           @Html.EditorFor(x=>item);
       }

Change it to

@foreach (Car item in Model.Cars)
       {
           @Html.EditorFor(x=>item.Name);
       }

It might a case of the model binder not being smart enough to bind more than one level down, although I don't remember ever having that issue. it may also help to add Glimpse (http://getglimpse.com/) to your project so that you can see how the request is actually processed.
