Introduction

2008 Editors' Choice Awards
Spend a day test-driving prospective new rides and you just might believe that there are no bad vehicles anymore. That's largely true, but what linger on are the wide gaps in execution in terms of performance, quality, style and more. Within the limits of these criteria the ho-hums sink to the bottom and the exceptional rides rise to the top. That's where you'll find the best of the best, the vehicles conceptualized and built with pride of ownership foremost in their creators' minds. For that reason, they're each worthy of car buyers' consideration and one of our 2008 Editors' Choice Awards.

- 1967-68 Shelby Gt-500 Iowa

With a road-racing suspension setup, high-strung small-block V8, and lack of a backseat on which to haul buddies, those original GT-350s weren't a popular pick with the burger-joint crowd. And that was fine with Ford, at least at first -- Shelby's cooperation on the Mustang was initially sought to give competition credibility to Ford's pioneering ponycar, which GT-350s did handily by winning sports-car races.

- 1953 Jaguar Mark VII Iowa

The crowds surrounding Jaguar's stand at the 1950 Earls Court Motor Show were drawn as much by the new Mark VII sedan as they'd been two years earlier when the sleek XK 120 roadster made its debut.
