North American Car of the Year

The list of candidates has been released for the COTY, but is it a worthy list?

Comprised of 25 autos, the North American Car of the Year will be voted on and the winner will be announced at the next Detroit Auto Show, slated to happen in January of 2010. Basically this is a popularity contest, which 50 automotive journalists will bicker over until the Detroit Auto Show next year.

So take a look at the list and what would you improve on or add? There’s a few things, like the Toyota Prius, that’d we get rid of. It can’t do a burnout for goodness sake. As a final question, what would be your car of the year taking into account everything released this year or about to be released? So many choices…

2010 North American Car of the Year candidates:

Audi S4
BMW Z4
BMW 335d
BMW 5-series GranTurismo
Buick LaCrosse
Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon
Chevrolet Camaro
Ford Fusion/Fusion Hybrid
Ford Mustang/GT500
Ford Taurus/Taurus SHO
Honda Insight
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Kia Forte

Lexus HS 250h
Lotus Evora
Mazda3/Mazdaspeed3
Mercedes Benz E-Class

It would be a close call between the Ford Mustang, hopefully for obvious reasons, and the BMW 335d. The question being fun with practicality and witch means more to you.

Ladies. Love. Lambos.

We here at 0-60 have conducted a study and the results are astonishing. Women will dress scantily and pose for pictures with a Lamborghini.
