The winner of this annually evaluated award is decided after a year of fierce competition among the latest and greatest high performance machines hitting the open market.
Motor Trend’s editor in chief, Ed Loh, sums up the award accurately:
“Best Driver’s Car’ is the highest honor Motor Trend gives to a performance vehicle, which is the main reason it is so coveted across the industry. Congratulations to Porsche and its 911 Carrera S for beating out such a diverse, yet uniformly excellent field this year.”
Forever the sports car, the 911 has been around forever
Of course, Porsche President and CEO Detlev von Platen chimed in as well:
“Being named ‘Motor Trend Best Driver’s Car’ is a testament to the work of the men and women in Weissach and Zuffenhausen who are so passionate about designing and building sports cars. This accomplishment shows that the 911 still has the same magic it’s had for nearly 50 years, as it continues to be both a great car to drive everyday on the road and on the track.”
