Has anyone read the article?

This thread says 25 best but I see something that says influential.

I wonder if the 3oo all of us are talking about has some sound reason for being influential.
Same with the 458.

I guess that the name "911" includes all the 911. The same thing happens with the Corvette, the Camaro or the Shelby Mustang.

When I saw the 300 I said "WTF?". The one you can see on the picture is a SRT8, but still being a "seriously uncool" car.

pshh...this was shaping up to be a good list until I saw the 300

Then the entire list was invalidated. Garbage. Besides who the hell still reads Playboys?

Agreed, get rid of the 300 and the list is complete.

The Porsche 911 is on that list. The 959 is a 911 variant.





Again

I don't believe you guys fully understand the article until you read it.

Can someone find a copy of the article?

It says INFLUENTIAL cars. There has to be a reason for the 300 and all of the other cars on this list.

I'd bet if you guys would stop assuming this is the 25 best cars of all time and read the article the authors might have something to say to explain their choices.

On my Ipad I can't read any of the car descriptions and Why they are on the list.

Maybe the person who put the article together accidently used that picture instead of a picture of a Bentley.

At least they had their head on straight when they put the Miata on the list.
