I only agree with the underlined models the rest are just BLAH. An it's amazing how C&D always makes sure to omit Mercedes-Benz. Even Audi should have had a spot on the list.

I get sick of this, if it doesn't have a manual then it's not a drivers car BS.

Interesting how C&D favored the Corvette here but in a recent comparison with the Germans it gave it last place by a long shot.

I don't need to look at that list anymore because half the cars on it are always on it no matter what. Especially these:

2009 BMW 3-series / M3
2009 Chevrolet Corvette
2009 Honda Accord



The current BMW 3-Series, Corvette or Accord could be the worst cars on the market today and they would still make the 10 best list at Car and Driver.

Anyway, I don't care because I know what fits and suits me. I don't need C&D to tell me what is good for me. It's a shame that so many people actually quote the 10 best list from C&D as being some sort of all-knowing source.

Lol...That is so true. And it really is sad considering some people actually buy their cars based on this list. It's more then obvious how biased Car and Driver really is....again that is why I haven't renewed my subscription. I want to be told the truth and nothing but...
