Car- PCOTY: wtf???
Am I missing something here?
In the super saloon category: no M5, no RS6, no Maserati quattrothingy.
No 911 of any kind
No Nissan GTR!
What's the point?????

Thats the problem with all the Car of the year tests with any of the magazines, they forget the word "New" in the title.
It would of been nice to see some other cars there, and technically the GTR is new this year in the UK so should of been there.
And then they always bring a testbed car along, the new Noble600 is looking like an awesome car and it looks very very fast around circuits (even for £200k, but when the new Mac comes out for £150k it won't fair so well!) but its still not on the market and it was still a test prototype, so how come it was there?
Still, the article made interesting reading, CAR is getting better all the time.

I haven't seen the article - I understood there to be two separate references - hence Deep's comments about no 911 and no GTR - clearly neither are Super Saloons 
But you knew that anyway

I saw two GTR's in Leeds on Thursday, and neither were saloons, but the black one looked nicer than the white one, IMHO.

Sorry, what I meant was there were loads of cars in each of the categories (inc, but not only, super saloons) that seemed to be missing. A pcoty without the GTR in it just seemed ridiculous imho
