I might also add that these Bozos are the ones who wrote that "Performace King" atricle that compared the Boxter S, and BMW M3, and the Z06 - the Z06 soundly trounced both competitors an every performance category (he BMW tied in one category - skid-pad) - yet the MT boys all picked the BMW as the best all-around performance car, primarily on the basis that the BMW has back seats, and very high qualiy dashcovering and switchgear coupled with sexy little non-functional chrome vent-bezels on the fenders.

Of course these guys also think khaki shorts and roll-up fishing hats are stylish daywear.

Ok - I am better now...

best regards -

mqqn - I think you're confusing Motor Trend with Motorweek (unless they are affiliated in some way).

Doh!

You may be right - I do not subscribe to any of these - I always confuse Motor & Road with CarWeek, or is it CarTrend? My bad.

thanks and best regards -
