Pretty cool how they talk through the cars! I agree with the coupe discussion though - the V6 is the engine to go with imo. And the new Z4 looks great, too bad its $70k with options.

I still cannot believe the GTI won. What's so great about a pricey FWD hatchback? Equipped like my Genesis sedan it's $31k and fully-loaded it's around $35k. LOL

The Ford Fusion won...

Lot of cars to choose from. I think I'm a sucker for the Legacy. I would love to have one, but still would take the Genesis over it of course. It would be a fun car no matter the weather with the AWD.

Not a fan of the fusion. My old neighbor had one and at 13,000 miles his tranny blew. He's been battling with Ford now, since he's been having problem after problem with this POS and said he will trade in in and take the loss. Now he regrets not buying the Toyota camary. He explained that he didn't buy the camary due to all the recalls and problems he's read about. Not sure why he didn't consider an Accord, but if I had to guess it was probably due to price.

I thought all the cars in the MT COY competition had to be new models (major changes from previous years)? I really don't know, but maybe the new Fussion is better. Of course, reliability does not enter into the MT COY competition.

Darn it, I confused my car mags again. I was thinking of Automobile.

As for the Fusion, it's a good car, but aside from the Hybrid model it doesn't even begin to break any new ground. And the interior looks a bit dated to me.

Have you seen the 2010 Fusion?

Yes. Several in fact. Why?
