1. 2009 Nissan GT-R
Editors' rating: 9.7
The good: The 2009 Nissan GT-R is a unique car, employing impressive tech in its engine, suspension, and drive system. But its cabin electronics are also top-notch, with an advanced navigation system, digital music system, and cell phone integration. It tops the cabin tech with an in-dash performance computer.
The bad: The ride is rough in the GT-R for normal street driving, and the mileage stays below 15 mpg.
The bottom line: The 2009 Nissan GT-R is a technical tour de force, with evidence of brilliance throughout. We would have a hard time with the GT-R as an everyday driver, but it offers fun and exhilaration at heart-stopping levels.
Price range: Base price is $69,850; review model cost $71,900
