Some people should actually read the REQUIREMENTS for being considered.
This year, we have simplified the voting process for the Road & Track Readers' Choice Award: The Best Car 2005. What's changed is that there will only be one round of voting to decide the winner. The Road & Track staff has compiled a list of candidates on the following pages with brief impressions and technical specifications. The rule is the same on how the new cars can qualify as a candidate. All the models must be all-new or have significant upgrades. Each must have a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of less than $100,000 and carry a 2005 model year designation. Of course, having above-average performance and handling, pleasing design, and being both space- and fuel-efficient are important too.
The 05 GTO doesn't qualify because just updating the engine isn't enough. But then again, those who are INTELLIGENT enough to figure that out.....well, then again, I did read the article and the RULES, unlike most here.
