Car of the Decade?

Personally I would say the M3, Evo, STI, or the new challenger.
All way better than the stang.
And a vespa will get you laid faster than a prius.

Guys, to clarify–the Caprice and 240 represent two of the most popular cars to mod this decade, with the popularity of high risers and drifting. That’s all I was saying with that.

ok im sorry but those pumpose asses at NY dont know what theyre talkin bout a CAYANNE as car of the decade phh please what about the new LEXUS IS-F that thing is a beast the new NISSAN SKYLINE GT-R or what about the new CHEVY CAMARO i think that is hotter than the MUSTANG when it comes to old school style we have 2 more years to go in this decade so i think ppl should wait till all these cars come out and everyone can then make a true statement as to who deserves the CROWN

has to be the mustang! the prius makes me want to puke, the donk and 240 ain’t even from this decade so has to be the stang!!

Did someone actually say the Scion XB? What the hell? This is another example of what drugs will do to you, JUST SAY NO!

hate to argue and bring in one of the last-minute contenders, but look at the Tesla roadster. if no one has heard of it, Go to http://www.jaylenosgarage.com, go under cars, and click on it, watch the video and what not. Its a fully ellectric sports car, made from the design of the lotus elise. goes 220 miles on a 6 hour charge. not the salvation we need to go on long trips with, but definitly a sweet ride for the commuter that travels 200+ miles a week. plus it looks wayyy better than a prius. otherwise, the ford mustang has my vote.

Wow, what the hell were they thinking when they made that Toyota Prius, why they even made it look like it was something is beyond me, that’s all I gotta say, but nice ass Mustang!!

Well considering that this decade has witnessed an incredible gas crisis and the only real response to this by the car manufacturers was hybrids, this goes to show that this decade so far hasn’t really impressed me at all. The GT-R is an awesome car, but with gas prices going higher and higher all we have to look forward to is a prius? I mean there’s a reason muscle cars died out in the 70’s. People need to get their heads out of their asses and stop buying SUV’s and Muscle cars. Like any other guy I love HP and going fast but if gas is $4.50 a gallon whats the use? Maybe in the remaining two years a truly electric car will come out and solve the gas crisis, but until then muscle cars are not the answer. And yes Prius drivers do think their shit smells like roses.

Well, the Mustang looks a hell of a lot better now. Unfortunately, there are many people that say it isn’t really worth it for several reasons, most being that the V6 doesnt have much power, the V8 doesnt feel like 300hp, the ride feels too low, there is too much interior noise… the Prius is worthless, inefficient, ugly, and makes people smug. Donks are just a waste of money, they make the vehicle less safe for everyone. The 240 was discontinued in the late 90s and used a damn TRUCK engine, in fact its the same one I have in my truck RIGHT NOW!!!

GT-R should have it for 00-10 simply because 0-60 in 3.3 seconds with an automatic, with good gas mileage, two turbos, three intercoolers, 480hp, AWD, quiet interior AND Top Gear’s 2007 supercar of the year within WEEKS of its release with a starting price of $70k.

MY WHITE ASS WILL THEY GIVE THE CAYENNE THE CAR OF THE DECADE! THEY LIE ABOUT THE WAR, THEY LIE ABOUT THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION, THEY LIE ABOUT THE CURRENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES SO THEY DON’T DESERVE TO SHARE THEIR OPINION ON CARS.

Considering that the donks are completely retarded and wasteful and the Caprice not even being from the last decade, same as the 240sx, my choice would actually be the 2007 Malibu and the Impalas. I know what you are thinking, what the f*ck, right? WELL…they both have outstanding gas mileage, great ride, roomy, not riddled with useless crap, clean and both are just nice cars. Don’t get me wrong! My FAVORITE VEHICLE for the past decade would be the Chevy Silverado 2500 Heavy Duty 4×4s! THAT is an amazing truck! Even the 1500s are awesome, but I was only going as far as cars in this…so the new Malibus and Impalas get my vote.

Personally id say the 240. the mustang made a statement yea but if you pay attention it also put for in the red on sales. the 240 like in the article it seems like no one else read, the 240 is still plentyfull with plenty of gas milage and mods at hand so i would have to go with 240 and from my opinion dont take it to heart it should only be the big 2 for domestic ford just dont seem to cut it on reliability and how long you can keep it alive. the mustang is all they have to live by

I’d have to agree, the new retro mustang did make a big statement to this decade and caused the same result as it did back in the 60s…got the other two to bring somthing to the market to compete for our $$$

I agree with guyface. IMO mustangs are the worst cars ever but they did bring back the 60s with the competative muscle cars. but once the new camaro comes out and TES the streets, it will be the best

umm… the 240 and the caprice arent even this decade?!

240 fo sho

Ford Mustang all the way!!!

corvette!

03 Ls1 camaro ss

definitly the donk and if not the donk then the mustang rate my car

240sx

Im gonna have to agree with you on the new mustang. it helped bring back muscle cars. with the f bodys dissapearing and only the fords left they turned an already great car into something even better. I know alot of people hate them but they inspired the camaro and challenger to come back out so power to them.

im gonna have to go with the prius
with the ridiculously high gas prices and its environmentally friendly figure it is the car of the decade
i dont know how NY Times came up with the cayenne though

Agreed to every single one,THE DONK’s IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE BEST!

Oh now let the comments on that 74 caprice just start rollin now

… i would love to make the lexus LS500hL my car of the decade. Specifically the 08 design. Hybrid V12….628hp and close to 600 miles per tank. You can’t argue with the greatness of that, but since its fairly new I would have to say the Evo 8 had a big part for the decade. 275hp rally-inspired AWD sedan for under 30grand. Sign me up for that.

I would only pick the Prius as Car of the Decade if there was a “marketing” category. Marketing is what sold that car; nothing else did.

scion tC, they’re frakin everywhere.

does the ford tempo count?

I don’t know about other cars, but the 2009 GTR better be at the top of that fucking list.

I would have to say the chrysler 300 they seemed to have just ballooned everywhere, from celebs to blue collar and they’re fairly cheap and easy to customize caprices4lyfe@blogspot.com

Who cares what the times think the car of the decade is, none of them have a clue. You might as well consult good housekeeping

Also to comment on the Mustangs 25k with 300hp, you can get the new G8 for around 29k with a 6.0 V8 with a bunch more hp plus it’s got full back seats.

One other car I might have to mention is the Cadillac Escalade, it really helped to define this era.

From what I see around here in Michigan it would have to be a Chrysler, most likely a 300 on account of they had cheap leases on a full sized car and it got people around here all having new cars without problems. Also its been known to be pretty good for customization mostly in the DUB category though.

Also if I had to pick a foreign car it would have to be the Lexus LS460, its the first car to ever park by itself and you can complain about it all you want that is a great achievement in a production car.

Any Stang for me Shelby, Or the regular bonestock stang.

adam, get a clue man. there have been cars like the xB in japan for years now, it’s nothing new… well, only to the american market.

my car of the decade would have to be the shleby mustang with out a doubt.

Scion xB! The xB has to be the most unique vehicle to come to the US in a long time. I love all the exotic cars that will likely grace this list, but as far as what “real” people drive, I vote for the xB.

woops!! had a typo. I meant strongest.

Definitely the Stang. It wasn’t the first retrostyled car, but I think it was the strangest and really let the masses who wanted a ‘65 GT or Shelby get their wish but with the comfort of everyday drivability.
