Unbelievable. I *really* don't understand some of the choices that made the final cut ..(and how the 928 didn't). Delorean? I mean, OK, it's got cult status but for anyone who actually plays Forza.. you're not going to win any races in it and there won't be any engines/upgrades that are worthwhile to make it competitive.

I don't understand the pickup truck thing, or that glorified Talbot Horizon Shelby thing, although I appreciate I am on the wrong continent to understand them.

Still, from a European's perspective, I don't see why we needed both the Sierra *and* Escort Cosworths (although one of them would be a must in my book), taking up a valuable slot from something like, say, the 205 T16 OR THE 928!

Oh well, democracy in action, huh?

Lame.
With Porsche presenting the Panamera on Xbox live and showing the comercial that features the Porsche family tree. I had hoped there would be a download pack with all the cars in the comercial including the 928.

Come on Porsche great advertising chance here.

Yeah, dissapontment reigns here too. And since I must be in the wrong demographic to understand the el camino thing, I think there was some robbing going on. They have yet to post the full list of votes for all candidates.

But at 88mph, the DeLorean will instantly win.

I'm always amazed when I'm around "car guys" who think the DeLorean is one of the hottest cars ever made.

Proof that a starring role in a hit movie, always wins over actual performance.

Don't count me as one of them. When I was in college, I blew the doors of a Delorean in a stoplight battle. What was I driving? A 1970 GMC suburban ambulance which we used to deliver packing boxes.
