Yep, the SVX made the list but, has some good company.

GMC Typhoon/Syclone would be my pick.

Re: Ten Greatest Cars That Make No Sense.

Well they are right about some cars, but not for other. I agree with LFA, the R63, the Phaeton, the Prowler and Nissan. For the others they were partly right.
I adore the Renault V6, been in one, a real monster on wheels. As for the SVX, it should definitely have more punch and a manual.

Re: Ten Greatest Cars That Make No Sense.

I agree that the SVX should be on the list, but we must also realize that it is at the end of the list.

Of course there are things that should have been otherwise with the SVX, but outside of the sticker price, and the transmission, it is a well done car.

The Lexus LFA is incredible, but terribly overpriced. This just happens to be the same problem that the SVX suffered from.
We must not forget that the SVX was also on a very short list of "must have cars", published only 5 years ago.
