I had a similar deal with Hemmings using an unauthorized picture of my car.
They admitted they were wrong, but I wasn't an azz about it because I thought it was kind of cool to have my car in a magazine.
They were nice about it and after a bit of discussion with the editor, they gave me some free issues that had the pic, plus a new one and agreed to give me a photo credit any time they use the picture in the future. He offered to put in a clarification/apology, but I told him he didn't have to.
I would tell them to stop using a pic of your car and to give you some kind of compensation for using an unauthorized picture. If they are jerks, threaten them with legal action.

I would either try to get some kind of $$$ from them for using your car without permission. If they say no then I would get a lawyer involved. If it was the other way around you know they would be at your door step with a lawyer ready to bring you to court.
