TopGear Survey Results
TopGear Survey Results
For those of you who don't watch TopGear . . or watch the rarely aired, hacked-up US version.
2005's Top Gear Car Survey was the largest yet, with 76,000 people helping to uncover the best and worst cars in the United Kingdom that money can buy. Cars were rated for reliability, driving enjoyment and dealer service.

Very nice to see Lexus on the top 10 list twice for 2005. It's interesting that the S2000 was ranked below the IS, but then surpassed it and has had 1st place for the last two years. Maybe the IS350 will change this for 2006?

A big reason why the S2000 probably made a jump to #1 in 2004 is because it got the upgraded 2.2L engine that year. It may be just a small displacement jump, but for a light high reving car like the S2000 that added torque and retuning really did wonders for the over all drivability and driving dynamics of that car.
