Seems like a very honest list... surprised to see Hybrid Toyota's on the bottom... strange? |

I think that the 3er has a good chance of winning another car of the year. The stiffest competition in that list is going to be the Passat and the Civic... not same category, but I don't see any others winning. |

Looking at the truck list it's pretty obvious that the ML had an easy match to win. Next years battle will be more interesting GL vs. X5 vs Q7.  |

I subscribe to Motor Trend and I was disappointed with their SUV and Car of the Year choices. Rather dull choices if you ask me.  |
