2020 Road And Track Performance Car of the Year

https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-car...r-of-the-year/


1. tl;dr it's the Hyundai Veloster N

2. Travis Okulski is a genius. Sure, Motor Trend and Car and Driver have more 'scientific' tests at Laguna and VIR. I don't give a shit, I don't know who their writers are and I won't do more than skim their tests, bench racing is fun I guess, I still do it, you can probably dig up posts where I talk about swapping tires and such on cars and getting better lap times than X and Y, I'm over it. Road and Track has guys writing that have personality, that work social media, I see Cammisa and Sam Smith responding to comments all the time, they're fun, they get it. How many journalists are swapping seats in their Integra Type R's on the weekend or benchmarking new Golf's against their 30 year old Sciroccos? Read the article, it's fun, that's what cars should be. This morning if you had asked me to pick a 2nd car for my garage it would have been a Civic Type R, because of articles like this, now Hyundai is in the hunt, I never thought it would be.

Cheers for a daring pick, cars should create joy.
