MVC newbie here again!

I have two lists in my controller. 

IList<Cars> allCars = _repository.GetAll<Cars>();
IList<Bikes> allBikes = _repository.GetAll<Bikes>();

Cars { Id, Name }
Bikes { Id, Name }

So, I have this list of class and I want to display a select dropdown list with an optgroup for bikes and cars, something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/xNEm9/

thanks!

I don't think you can without additional code but I think somebody worked on it before: Support for optgroup in dropdownlist .NET MVC?
