only dozens of spots behind cars like the fiat 500, mini cooper and gti. lets not continue to acknowledge this as legitimate journalism and just enjoy it for its entertainment value

Sorry was this a list or a ranking? Looked kinda list-ish to me.

If you are looking at top gear for legit journalism, you're gonna have a bad time.

Kelbyat07 09-13-2013 01:43 AM

Hey at least the twins made it on another car's list.

Mandy 09-13-2013 02:01 AM

I doubted the credibility of the list around the time I got to the Ford Focus being placed 40 spaces ahead of the Ford GT. That and the Prius.

zaptorque 09-13-2013 02:48 AM

AN 98 FORD FOCUS IS #7?!

YMAA 09-13-2013 03:03 AM

Yeah, I really hope this was just an unordered list and not an overall ranking.

JesseE 09-13-2013 03:04 AM

lol there should be no vw/audi on that list... sorry they all couldn't make it through a days journey without breaking down... twice.

That's list is just as stupid as Top Gear...:mad0259:

Really 20 years after the Toyota Supra was made and you still pay a premium for one used but the Prius and ford focus is on that list.

FYI I dont think think the numbers mean anything. I think its an arbitrary list of 50 great cars

Actually, I think it does. Per the article it says they are counting down to the best car then awarding the winner to the Top car. Seems like it is in order to me. Man, there are some great cars missing from the list and some questionable cars added.. Can't say I agree with it. But it sounds like users voted.
