Default Car of the Year

Honda Civic? WTF? I have not read the article so I should be carefull but once again the honda Civic? I bet it's got a molded plastic interior like ours! Also couple of weeks ago I think I heard RECALL, something about peddle or some part falling off. I'm not mad I'm amused, what do they base these things on? If I'm right about recall come on Motor Trend![:-]

If you ever think a high end performance car like the SRT-4 is gonna win Car of the Year, ya best go find a clue. This car is NOT Car of the Year material.

That said, they got jobbed on the Cheap Speed classification earlier in the year.

Car of the year is based on just more then how fast it can go, and let's be honest, the SRT-4 is a freakin pocket rocket from hell, but beyond that, its really not all that WOW to alot of people.

yea, but spending 23k on a civic is just insane. it's a cheap car, and 23k isn't cheap.

I put the "Car of the Year" award right up there with the "Miss America" contest...i.e., meaningless B.S........[:'(]
