Motor Trend Driver's Car of the Year releases tomorrow! Predictions?

Talking to friends over at Motor Trend and the Driver's Car of the Year releases tomorrow! I highly recommend people get the Motor Trend on Demand app to check it out. I know I will.


I know the new 1LE is a popular choice amongst the editors but will it reign on top? I'm guessing top three but probably not 1st. I can't wait to find out.

I can't see how it could win for this year when it isn't even here yet. Year is almost over.

Can we say please no spoilers in post title for this??? Of course we can make a thread to talk about it but how about we don't spoil it for any who hasn't watched yet.

I am surprised there is no 911R there as that would be a free win for Porsche. With a turbo Carrera it's not so certain.. I think it will be either the 911 or GT350R.

With some of the competition it had I'd be shocked if it wins. I think it would be a tremendous accomplishment if it did but don't see it happening.
I'm thinking/hoping it's a top three also.

Thinking about sending R.P. a message tonight and see what he says since I won't be seeing him at Mid-O this coming week.

I think it'll be the 350R or the viper.

I think it may be the GT350R as well. Time will tell.

9/22 (Thursday) is when the announcement will be (according to Chris Walton). Videos will be released prior to that time, starting tomorrow.

I think it has a good chance of making it into the top 3 though I kind of expect the GT350R to win it this year.

The GT350R will likely win overall.

I'm gonna say the 1LE ran a 1:37.65. The R a 1:36.15.

I edited your post to the correct time.

I am thinking something even more expensive will win, but I bet the SS 1LE gets the highest praise for bang for the buck, BY FAR.
