Default Nice review::hurray:

Copied from MSN who copied it from Kiplinger's Personal Finance:

"by the Editors of MSN Autos "

" Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine selects a healthy mix of domestic and import brands among its Best in Class vehicles for the 2004 model year."


" Chevrolet's Corvette wins Kiplinger's Best Sports Car category. " :hurray:


" Nissan's Pathfinder Armada (above) shares the spotlight for Best Large SUV with Cadillac's SRX."

" GMC's Sierra 1500 Extended Cab Truck gets the nod as the Best Big Truck for 2004."

"Hyundai earned top honors in the Under $17,000 class with its Elantra GT."

" In its 53rd annual new-car buyer's guide, the financial advice publication selected what it considers to be the Best in Class vehicles in each of 13 categories. Passenger cars are divided by price, while additional categories include SUVs and pickup trucks by size as well as one for best minivan and best station wagon."

" Domestic brands earned top scores in six categories. General Motors fielded the most domestic winners with four: the Chevrolet Corvette as Best Sports Car " :hurray: ; "the GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab as Best Big Pickup Truck; the Chevrolet SSR as Best Small Pickup Truck; and the Cadillac SRX as Best Large SUV (tied with the Nissan Pathfinder Armada). "

The article was on the MSN home page. As the MSN article stated, it was from Kiplinger's. Unless you have MSN or get Kiplenger's, you're SOL. However, while trying to find the article for you, here's the results of a poll (I don't get all of the categories but I can see that the Z06 wins in most every category)===this was also on MSN, in the car section:
