The 2016 Automobile All-Stars
We don't do boring.
Yes, we're impressed that the Acme BlahMiser Brougham sold 600,000 units last year, but if it doesn't make our cerebellum sizzle when we drive it, if it doesn't channel our passion for mechanical splendor, if it doesn't make us a bit teary-eyed when we switch off the ignition, it'll never be an Automobile All-Star. Save the complicated entry rules, the price caps, and the tedious numbers-crunching for the consumer reporters. We're aficionados, as attuned to the tugging of our hearts as we are to the musings of our minds.
What's more, like most of you we dream big; a couple of the winners pictured here climb pretty high into the price stratosphere. But, hey, just because we can't afford a Jackson Pollock painting doesn't mean we're not going to celebrate its brilliance -- and envy those who can hang one on their living room wall. Thus, our formula for this All-Stars shootout: We gathered up 25 of the 2016 model year's most intriguing new models spanning a variety of classes and market niches and drove them for a week on the racetrack and the road, and voted for our seven favorites. Boom, done: the best of the best, the new vehicles dearest to this magazine's purpose. These are the 2016 Automobile All-Stars.
