I chose the Genesis thinking it'd be the real under dog, but lo and behold, aside from the GT-R, it's the front runner!   :o

I also chose the Blue-Tec Benz thinking that good, efficient and clean diesels are very relevant to us right now and more makers should be encouraged to bring them here.

How could you vote for the Genesis?
Is it even for sale ?
It is not listed on their website.
I think a vehicular should be on the street before you can vote for it.
But they do have a performance link on their site

Good choice with the Blue Tec

I'm looking for Hyundai to do to Lexus and Infiniti what they did to Mercedes and BMW in 1990.  :)

I would have thought that Hyundai have shaken up the ratings here and their Elantra has taken the Cosumers Digest award for quality in it's class. Over the Corolla. So although it is not a new model it deserves a good mark here. The Accent has also taken J D Power award. What do you have to do to get a mention.

That would be me.

I voted for the two on the lists I'd actually buy: the 1-series and the Forester.  The BMW X6 is hideous.  You know it's bad when BMW copies a Ssangyong idea...



Replace ugly Ssangyong nose with BMW face and flame surfacing et voila: an overpriced, equally ugly SUV with reduced cargo space!
