Well, #1 - #14 matter.
Just as important, the Pontiac Vibe is essentially a Toyota product so a fair statement is that three of the bottom five are owned by new Toyota designs.
The key here is the word 'new'
Virtually all Toyota, Lexus, and 3/4s of Scions' automobiles are at sizable risk of going stale between now and 2012 - look at their future product plans - and then look at everybody else.
Then consider their execution - including schedules - the Matrix and Corolla were both at least a year late overall - and one must ask - why - for this level of product ??????
The new Cobalt will be facing this product and is likely to as stellar an effort - or better than the new Malibu and CTS.
