Wow - that list says it all. Ralph Nader would not be impressed with their 1960 choice - lol.
K-cars, Alliance, Caravans - sounds like a who's who in POS automobile manufacturing.

theres obviously tons of contenders, but its not about how nice a car is... other wise itd always be the most expensive luxury performance car... I dont see why civic dosnt deserve it... its a great car and stands for great engineering, drivability, performance, styling amongst other things for its segment. I personally would go with the infiniti M or bmw 3 series, but I certainly cant go against this pick, its a great pick.

I would rather wipe my *** with MT than read it when on the toilet. And magazine pages hurt my anus.
MT = crappy journalism funded my manufacturers that buy good results.
The Civic is ugly and WAYYYY overpriced. Nice investment Honda, way to buy that award.
