Nort, I saw a Bently, not that one but a new and sporty one, driving thru snow, salt, and sand on a hwy. I almost cried when i passed and pelted it with sand, not on purpose of course.

I'd imagine that they are quite fun offroad and in those conditions. I'm just confused on what the parameters where to make this particular list . . just seems odd, out of place when compared to the other nominee's :) A friend in my car club has a yellow Gallardo coming soon, cant wait to see it.

BTW, I have a twin turbo'd all wheel drive car that I enjoy driving myself. Hard launches, with no wheel spin whatsoever are addictive :)

The manufacturers send pre-released or newly released models to be driven and compared by selected Robb readers.....

One quote from a reader about the Subaru:

"It's 2 Fast 2 Furious for your teenage son. The cost savings should cover his court costs" :D :D :D :D :D

The Cayenne is also out of lace if you look at it like that
