Onslaught

This one is the most difficult for me. That's a list of some rather fine cars. I like all of them really.

I went with the MX-5. It's the cheapest and most fun out of all of them. That is unless you like drag racing, and then you're a redneck.

As much as I love several of these cars, the Mustang GT is clearly the winner in this category.

Without question! Absolute tops.

I voted for the Z last year, but with the 5.0 the Mustang is now my top choice for cars in this category.

I voted rx8 because its still the one on the list I would get.... can't argue with a chassis that after 7 years is still one of the best handling of any sportscar under 50k

Based on the new engine alone the Mustang is the best pick.

Had to go with the 5.0, even though I would probably get a Camaro if I was in the market.

Mustang, without hesitation.
Yep.

The Genesis was actually kind of a let down. If they can revise the interior to feel less cheap (the silver plastic and ugly LED displays have to go) and throw that 5.0 in for under 35K, they've got a shoe in for the 2012 win. Actually, they ditch the 3.7 and just give the 2.0T a Sonataesque power boost, and then offer the big daddy 5.0.

But yea. Nice lineup. 10 years ago that list was half as long, and in the cases of the Mustang/Camaro didn't offer anywhere near the same levels of value or refinement.
