Wheels Car Of The Year Finalists.............

[Red AH SRI T]

Announced tonight on A Current Affair on 9, were the three remaining finalists for COTY.

In no Particular order:

BMW 3 Series Coupe
Holden VE Commodore
Toyota V6 Camry (I refuse to call it the Aurion)


I'm a little confused about the allowing of the 3 series coupe however. Wheels say that body variants of models that have previously been tested for COTY aren't allowed to be judged for a subsequent years award. The 3 series sedan has already been tested, has it not? Why is the 3 Series Coupe being tested as a stand alone model when wheels say they award the gong to the Whole model range and not one particular variant?



The winner is announced live on ACA tomorrow nite

Im thinking, or hoping the VE... because weren't they counting on it, but the Aurion (and yes blackie, I will call it that) is rather hot, and nice!

And the Winner is ...
I have my money on the VE Commodore . Wheels is due out on Wed too. I have a feeling after the Special Wheels Commodore mag it will take it out.If it wins car of the year Ford will have a lot of work cut out for them in the next Falcon.

VE has to win or Wheels mag sales will drop 47.3%
it's a no brainer, really. they already used gigalitres of ink on this billion dollar baby...
i can't take them seriously since Territory was crowned COTY

i'd say that reason for the 3 series being there is because the VE is so europeanly designed....please tell me to shutup if i'm wrong but thats my guess. i'm definately hoping that the VE tops the champ chart...but you never know...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOL. What a Joke. A $34k motor vehicle still requiring an extra $2k for Air Conditioning makes Car of the Year.
