They couldn't pick the Honda Accord for 2008 because the Toyota Camry was chosen for 2007.  MT's afraid to alienate their readers or be considered "anti-American," which is inevitably what would happen. All the awards are like this, a back-and-forth between foreign and domestic. It's a business decision, not a car-based decision.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dustin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2007 1:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on <i>Motor Trend</i> crowns Cadillac CTS "Car of the Year"]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/19/i-motor-trend-i-crowns-cadillac-cts-car-of-the-year/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/19/i-motor-trend-i-crowns-cadillac-cts-car-of-the-year/</guid><description><![CDATA[Don't agree.

We have a 2006 Accord and nothing about the 2008 would make me want that car over our current one, which is exactly why it doesn't deserve car of the year.  I've never liked any Camrys, but the current model is leaps and bounds better than the last generation.  Same with this CTS.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scott]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2007 9:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on <i>Motor Trend</i> crowns Cadillac CTS "Car of the Year"]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/19/i-motor-trend-i-crowns-cadillac-cts-car-of-the-year/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/19/i-motor-trend-i-crowns-cadillac-cts-car-of-the-year/</guid><description><![CDATA[I really like the car as well.
