Coupe

By keeping the BRZ light, Subaru got a sharper-feeling sports machine than the WRX. The BRZ may be even sharper than the STi. The world hasn’t seen an entry-priced sports car this pure since the original Mazda Miata, way back in 1990.

SUV/Truck

The fact that Honda (mostly) hit a home run on interior comfort, trim, packaging and styling helps, but it’s the way this Honda drives that’s going to keep the CR-V a leader in the entry crossover slot.

Coupe

The Coupe is comfortable enough for long hours of driving, and it’s the most viscerally engaging Mini — which is a high bar.

The 2010 Mercedes ML350 BlueTec isn’t a sports car, but its character is more like that of luxury sedan than you’d expect.

Sedan

Vanilla, but solid and confident. That might sound damning, but Versa delivers precisely the pleasant character a mass-appeal car should.
