Seeing as how we are about to jump into 2005, what is the backroomer's Car Of The Year 2004?

For me its the Aston Martin DB9 - great looking, great performance, just need those 6 numbers to drop for me though.

Citroen C4 - 2004 the year Citroen started to make distinctive and clever cars again?

Opps probably 2003 with the pluriel.

2004 is the new (997) 911. No question. I don't really care what anyone else thinks. ;-)

Now, 2005 sees the arrival of the DB9 Volante.... Hmmm...

It was interesting that the Backroomer's choice of COTY from the same list as the Euro COTY list anticipated the Euro COTY. The Toyota Prius II. No other car is as interesting, as different and as advanced.

yea was at a party for high flyers recently and the cheapest car anyone turned up in was prius, quite a few of them, so they have broken that strange snob barrier

I sell quite a few Prius and from my observings i would say they are mainly bought by doctor's, accountants, teachers etc.

I think due to the much higher cost compared to a 'normal' car of it's size such as a Corolla or a Focus it is mainly the more well off who are looking for something a bit different.
