Everything and nothing mate basically stating the obvious that wheels has been bought out by the manufacturer with the most, being a prius handling shitbox.

Um, I don't follow you.
The Wheels COTY award had always been a bit of a running joke. I'll post the list off winners from over the years. Next year has already been decided with a new Commodore launching in 2013. |

i am happy with the win but who ever won any prize someone will pull the biggest ad client thing. if the Volt won, i'm sure the annual calendar helps.......
the twin has won so many awards around the world already i'd thought they will be immured but i'm wrong again. |

Granted their are some good and subpar/poor choices on that list it doesn't change the fact the car is deserving of awards coming it's way. Beyond that i would challenge you to find numbers of other car mags that haven't made poor choices that is life.
But for you to degrade this truly magnificient car is poor form on your part and to suggest post hast that another car deserved it more to be childish ignorance. Please note i do not care about whether this car receives awards or not and if you want to dis this car post a new thread with your own opinion instead of being a cockcroach with a grudge. |

Good lord, the guy didn't dis or "degrade this truly magnificient car" [sic] anywhere in this thread. State your case, sure, but come on, be fair about it.

Yes his intention was that Wheels is corrupt and that the 86 was the obvious/automatic choice which this is to be viewed as a direct/indirect dis/degradation of the car in question.
As per above link i suggest that he should procrastinate their where he will be a god. Also adding to that you have disrepected the drift king Keiichi Tsuchiya shame on you mate. |

Thanks to the guys that actually GET IT.
The Hot Tuner Challenge was a farce this year too. Tuners that shall remain nameless were allowed to repair their car, even despite the fact that rules stipulated no one could do so. The workshop in question is a major contributor to Motor magazine. Not once did I take a shot at the 86. It's probably one of four or five cars on that list that I would own. It's not the greatest car ever made and people need to come to terms with that and stop attacking anyone that doesn't have the same opinion. |

You have come into this thread obviously looking for a fight by trolling your worthless opinion which i have noted as a direct attack on various topics. Take it or get out.
