Car of the Year: Corvette Z06. The performance buy of the year -- if anyone can say such a thing about a car that will set you back about $70,000. All the same, consider: a 7.0-liter V8 that produces 505 horsepower and rockets this more lightweight Corvette to 60 in 3.8 seconds, not to mention tremendous handling, good feedback, a driver-friendly interior and a sexy shape that still turns heads. Car of the year -- a slam-dunk!

"Driver friendly interior". Uh-huh. Yeah right. :biggrin

But at the end of the article:

Best Uber Alles Car: Ford GT. Nothing we've driven to date had people materializing around it like this car. More than 500 horsepower hidden under a seductive body, a sexy exhaust, a laid-back interior, a rock-solid build, flat handling, great feedback -- it all adds up to a world-class GT car that carries not an Italian brand, but an American one. If you want to be seen, this is the car for you. If you want to raise hell, there are few things better.

There you have it.
