They mentioned in the Feb edition that the comparo has a surprise winner?
Hmmm

There is no surprise winner - I got my subscription copy yesterday. I had a quick flick through. The surprises to them were that the Avalon did better than they expected against the Camry and that the Commodore Acclaim came so close to beating the Futura. However, the Futura did win. Their one main comment re the Futura was that they would definitely put the Sports Suspension on it. I've got that on my Fairmont V8, so I'm happy!
