Anybody hear the five finalists for "Car of the Century"? this morning on NPR?  
Supposed to be a car that changed lives, innovated, had influence on other 
cars, etc.

They were:

Ford Model T
Citroen (can't remember the model)
Porsche 911
VW Beetle
Mini (and it's several iterations)


I suppose the Model T will win in the end, but it would have been nice to have 
an MG on the list, woudn't it?  I can't figure out the Porsche - I would have 
thought that the token sports car would be the Jaguar XKE......

I'm rooting for the Mini.
