    Interesting list. I'd probably swap the Soul for the Cube but otherwise, that list looks good to me.

    Prius is not interesting enough?

    Nor is the Honda, I see. But a lot of big gas guzzlers certainly made the list. These people seem to have a low threshold of excitement. Booooooorrrrrrrring!

    Tarus is more exciting than the Tesla roadster? WTH!

    The American media promotes what is in its commercial self-interest.

    The lack of ANY EV, or hybrid is particularly disturbing. Then again, when I saw the list ... I must admit ... I was 'excited' ... but that was because it was so disturbing :confused:

    1. Don't know much about the Soul, no comment.
    2. Genesis coupe - OK
    3. SHO - I can see how a reintroduced SHO can be exciting
    4. The return of the american station wagon, so OK
    5. Another rehashed, boring SUV :(
    6. Yet another warmed-over SUV/Crossover :(
    7. The 370 is lighter than the old 350 (unlike every other car) Yay. :rockon:
    8. It looks nice at least....
    9. The Golf? Seriously? Not even the GTI?
    10. Isn't the E-Class (not any kind of AMG) the antithesis of "exciting"?
