Any guesses which one?

Take your time...

Hint, it's not British...

Or German...

Give up?

It's the Fiesta ST, which they called "The most enjoyable car of 2013." Who'da thunk?

The other cars did win awards as well though.

They named an American car as their Car of the Year?

Time to go to church. The Apocalypse is upon us.

I was going to say either the Fiesta ST or the Jag F-Type.

I'm glad I drive a future classic!

It's an "American" car, but the Fiesta ST and Focus ST, IMO, are the beginning of the Ford Global initiative, where they bring the "Euro" models to us.....good sign!

Isn't it German? The cars sold in GB is most likely produced in Cologne, Germany, headquarters of Ford Europe. I'd say it's probably developed there as well, but with a goal of making a car that could work in all markets.

Quiet, you. ;)

You're right, of course, and I knew someone would point that out.

Me too, I did that "ST Experience" thing and absolutely loved the car. It's balance and responsiveness is incredible and I want it in my life. Totally expected them to pick the Jag though.

Oh it's British. Like the new Mustang. Only the old terrible disgusting ugly Fords count as American.

It's a future classic because TG approved of it?

Let's not fool ourselves. It's not like TG would ever give the Corvette an award not related with hamburgers and incest.

No, a future classic because the amalgamation of awesome reviews it's been getting the last year.

So Hammond the secret American stuffed the ballot box? That can be the only explanation for the P1 not winning. Either that or JC voted against the P1 out of spite for its "stupid name". His words, and I can't say that I disagree with him.
