BMW 3-Series - 17th straight year, a record.
Cadillac CTS
Chevrolet Corvette
Chevrolet Malibu
Honda Accord
Honda Fit
Mazda MX-5
MazdaSpeed 3
Porsche Boxster and Cayman

Edit to add that when making this list Car and Driver considers the entire range of a given model. For example they consider the entire range of the 3-series - sedan, coupe, convertible and M3.

The Three Series is KING
But seriously, how can you deny this as a great allround car from almost every perspective, only the stubborn in my opinion can turn their nose up to this car.... | | | | | Contributor

I guess they felt patriotic when it came to the CTS because I don't see why it and not the G35/G37 combo isn't there. The CTS just got beat in a comparo in the same issue!

Great result for the 3-Series.
And hats off to the Accord which has now been on their list some 22 times. | | | | | Advocate

Yes, it's really not that bad as far as interior and exterior go. And it's way better looking then the previous model. Now I haven't driven it though.
Still might be a winner Merc1.... | | | | | The Photo Phanatic

As far as I can tell, the BMW 3er and Honda Accord always make the list. C&D is simply BMW and Honda biased: fact.
That doesn't mean the cars are bad, but this bias is known.
Surprised the Infiniti G37 didn't make it. I thought magazines were raving about that thing.
Now...
Honda Fit?
Mazda MX-5? HUH? | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to cawimmer430 For This Useful Post: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
