The goddamned prius is on that list...
Guessing the list isn't about driving abilities of the cars. However, it does seem to be the only pedestrian vehicle on the list. You don't see a Nissan Altima or Honda Civic on the roster...

Yeah I don't know how the Prius made it.

Maybe they hate it, but respect it? I dunno. More petrol for the rest of us.

Considering many of their choices are not available in the US and/or are insanely expensive and out of reach from almost all of us, I don't see many Americans thinking much of that list. I'm surprised that I've driven more than half of the cars on their list. But I agree the list Is awful. A prius? BMW X5? first gen Audi TT? Uh, no.

I've driven exactly ONE of the cars on the list...the Miata. The list is bogus. How in the hell is the Bugatti and a Volkswagen 1 and 2? :bs:
