On the other end of the spectrum, I’m initially impressed by the new Ford Taurus which has finally dropped its air of conservativeness and features a strong, chiseled new look. It’ll be available with Ford’s EcoBoost 355-hp, 3.5-liter V6. Then there’s the massaging seats and adaptive cruise control, which are sure to translate into a winner that Ford desperately needs.

It boasts a 0-60 time of secondsGM and Chrysler showed some promise with electric vehicle concepts of their own, though it’s got to be quite the slap in the face to get beat to market by Fisker. Regardless, the Cadillac Converj concept and the Fisker-esque Dodge Circuit EV are worth keeping an eye onHow would you describe the most amazing car in the world?
