Time to let everyone know what the best Japanese car of all time is. CAR Magazine is holding a poll, follow the link to vote:

http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/C...08-09/

So far the S2000 has a good lead, although with the list they provide, I don't know why. A lot of better choices on there!

boooo, the morons who setup the vote don't know jack

they put the nissan z car as one item, is this supposed to include the earleir datsun cars or not?

they made the mazda rx7 and rx8 seperate cars, why not lump them togetehr as mazda rx cars? which would then include the RX2, rx3 and rx4

they did make the mazda cosmo it's own car which was the predecessor to the rx series of cars

they made the s2k it's one car whey not honda s cars? taht wasy it would include the older cars like the s500, s600 and s800?

they made the celica, supra and 2000gt all seperate cars, the 2000gt gave birth to the celica which gave birth to the supra why not join them together?

tjhe list the celica's and sup[ra's as seperate itmes, what if your viote if for the celica supra?

and when they say celica's are they including all celica's? front and rear wheel drive models? are they all equally significant?

they have the nissan 200sx, arre they refering to the lder rear drive model? or the newer front drive model? the 2 cars share nothing

sorry but whoever put that together is clearly not as into cars as his boss thinks he is

This is a UK-based magazine, so we need to take this with a grain of salt. The UK was never a big market for the Z car. Let's run this poll in the US and the number of Honda S2000 is so low, I think they maybe only sold 4k of them a year...compare that the huge years of Z cars. The Z never made it big in the UK.
