Playboy Picks Hottest Cars of 2007

A far more interesting list than those provided by Automobile and Car & Drivel.

BMW wins Car of the Year and gets the chicks.

Audi gets another goose egg.

A great list though.

Well guys, you like it or not but there are 3 Japanese winners compared to 2 only from German and American cars. ;-) And put it in other words, 2 Toyota/Lexus product compared to 1 BMW. So in either way you look at it, Japan product wins!!

Lexus H8R
you're not old enough to read porn.

did we read the same list? I count the following:
American = 4
European = 3
Japanese = 2

So what's the big deal about 2 Toyota products on the list? GM and Ford both have 2 each:
GM: Escalade and Sky
Ford: GT500 and CX-7

PLAYBOY'S 2007 CAR OF THE YEAR: BMW Z4M Coupe. BMW sure knows how to get the attention from the babes.

YES and with those "playmates" you better have deep pockets along with that BMW...

Clever name Mr Pussy!

I wonder why the Z4 M would win over a Porsche Cayman/Cayman S.

In all the comparison tests, the Cayman won over the Bimmer because its lighter, faster, and better looking.

In fact, on the show Girls Next Door (which follows the lives of 3 Playboy girls), one of the girls drives a red Caymen. I guess she didn't have input in the decision.

Because they don't know two $hits about cars.

BEST TWO-WAY PLAYER: VW Eos

Nice.

BTW, saw the LS460 driving down the road today, I thought it was the ES350 (very nice looking rebadged Toyota Camry) at first. From the rear it really looked plain. I guess the lines are sleek but it definately doesn't have the road presense of the Audi A8 or a MB S class. But that is just my opiinion.

BTW, I wonder why the Tundra won? Some category names are pretty clever.

bmw335-

The A8 is beautiful. Some people prefer a toned-down appearance. Not necessarily bland, but understated. That applies fairly to the A8 and LS. The old LS was bland, but in person, it's more like an A8 and less like a Camry- though I'd still pick an A8 over it, for the AWD and beautiful interior.

The BMW and the Mercedes-Benz, although I love the S-Class (the 750 is incompetent- doesn't beat the A8 in any area at all), are simply trendy. They aren't truly beautiful; they're just fashionable. Watch the 7 and S go out of fashion, while the A8, like a good wine (I've said this before), stays sleek and elegant for many years to come.

Excuse me...

"The old LS was bland, but in person, the NEW one is more like an A8..."

You must not have sense of style if you think that the LS460 looks like the Camry!!!The S-class looks more japanese than the LS460,the A8 looks too much like a Phaeton,and the 7-series looks dated!!!

1. I didn't say the LS460 looked like a Camry! I said, in person, I LIKED IT. Wow!

2. The A8 doesn't look like a Phaeton. The A8 is far superior to the Phaeton- it's 600lbs lighter.

3. The 7 Series doesn't look dated yet. It's not really class-competitive any more, but it's by no means dated.

S4 that comment was not meant for you,it was for "Chewy"....

I believe LexusHater has been booted from the website. I've been noticing comments, and replies- but usually, one of the replies says something to "LexusHater", when none of his comments are there.

Is a celebration in order?

Playboy should do what they do best: photographing nude girls.

Leave the car stuff to the car magazines.

The Lexus GS 450h won this prestigious category:

THE AL GORE SPECIAL: Lexus GS 450h

The Escalade can off-road. I don't love it, but it surely can.

It's a status symbol in America, if you haven't realized. It's the 300C of SUVs, or, more aptly, the 300C is the Escalade of sedans (Caddy was out first).

On the $80K+ end of the spectrum, the Range Rover is the S-Class of SUVs.
