Some days I choose violence. Other days I choose chaos. Today is a chaos day because today’s Autopian Asks wants to know: What do you think is the best vehicle made by each and every automaker (or, least the ones that come to mind). I’m serious. I have a list. A list!
“Best” is extremely subjective, and it would be great if you could explain all of your reasons. It’s also completely fine not to explain at all. The goal here isn’t to just think of your favorite cars from each automaker, the question is: what’s the best car that company has ever produced? It will be contentious. I want contentious. I want us to have fun.
Here’s a list to start with, but feel free to add and subtract:
- Tesla:
- Toyota:
- Porsche:
- Mercedes-Benz:
- BMW
- Chrysler
- Dodge
- Jeep
- VW
- Ferrari
- Honda
- Ford
- Chevy
- GMC
- Buick
- Pontiac
- Cadillac
- Hyundai
- Kia
- Nissan
- Rivian
- Subaru
- Renault
- Volvo
- Peugeot
- Mazda
- Mitsubishi
- Aston Martin
- Audi
And here are my answers, which are nonsense because I’m a nonsense person:
- Tesla: Model Y, the most important EV to date
- Toyota: Toyota MR-2 Turbo (SW20), fun Toyota but also good Toyota
- Porsche: W124 Mercedes-Benz 500 E, fast sedans are so much fun [Ed Note: Apparently this was developed by Porsche, but the real correct answer is the modern 911. It is objectively the best version of the best model Porsche has ever made. Or maybe the Cayenne is the answer based on sales figures… -DT].
- Mercedes-Benz: W124 Mercedes-Benz 500 E, fast sedans are so much fun
- BMW: E39, the best fast sedan
- Chrysler: Town & Country, it’s a legend and saved the company
- Alfa Romeo: Original Giulia, the best of Alfa
- Dodge: 1st Gen Viper, just look at it
- Jeep: CJ-7, maybe I’m trolling David [Ed Note: It’s clearly either the WWII Jeep, the XJ Cherokee, or the JK Wrangler; there are no other answers. -DT].
- VW: Rabbit GTI, the company stopped being just cheap cars
- Ferrari: 400i, maybe this is personal
- Honda: Honda Integra Type R DC2, so good
- Ford: Escort Cosworth RS, also so good
- Chevy: 1992 Chevy Silverado, an all-time best treak
- GMC: 1992 GMC Sierra, same
- Buick: GNX, remember when Buicks were cool?
- Pontiac: G8 ST, though no one has ever driven one
- Cadillac: CTS-V Wagon, the only thing better than a fast sedan is a world-beating wagon
- Hyundai: 1st gen, manual Veloster N
- Kia: Carnival, I will not explain further
- Nissan: R33 GT-R, technology and style
- Rivian: R1T, they only make two cars so…
- Subaru: Original Outback, important and kinda fun
- Renault: R5, it got the country on its feet and people still like the them today
- Volvo: 240 Wagon, I mean c’mon
- Peugeot: 505 Dangel 4×4, I mean c’mon
- Mazda: Mazda MP3, look it up
- Mitsubishi: Pajero Evo, Dakar cars are great
- Aston Martin: Virage Shooting Brake, I’m a weirdo
- Audi: QSW, the blueprint (when it works)
Ok, your turn.
