It appears that auto magazine writers can assist the Darwinian factor when it comes to what cars make it and what cars do not. Auto editors like to make lists of their favorites and, because they are auto magazine editors, they influence the desires of auto buffs worldwide.



So it is probably important to find out what these writers think of particular models -- do they pass or are they destined for extinction?

Here is one writers take (not mine, by the way). Do you agree?
