One proof of the Accord’s ongoing excellence is that through all those generations of models over 34 years, Honda has never felt any need to abandon that brand name. Another proof: 23 10Best trophies in 27 years. Outstanding barely describes this achievement.
Way to go GM. Finally some good news!
No 'Yota's on that list?

Holy moly, it is surprisingly easy to get the Accord into 32-36K territory, isn't it? WAAAAYYY too much for a FWD appliance.

The Holden boys down there like to shoot for the skies. The GTO was a great example - the ride and feel was really not your normal GMNA vehicle. Quality and interior was also much better than GMNA.
Top Gear really tells the whole story though. Whenever they put a Holden/Vauxhall car up to the test they always complain about the brute-ishness of them, but praise them for simplicity and their sheer fun value. They also always compare them to the BMW by default as well.
I've got some hardcore BMW co-workers that I want to test drive a G8 GXP Sedan if/when it makes it to dealerships here.
And the Coupe? Who knows.

C&D has their favorites like BMW 3 Series, Accord and more recently Vette, MX5, and Boxter/Cayman. Those cars are all pretty special in their categories and so unless another car comes in that is really impressive they will stay on the list.
Good for CTS and Caddy as that is a very good car.
