They should be sticking to the merits of the cars.
XR4Ti was VERY interesting when it came out, too bad all the press kept harping on "Merkur".

It doesn't matter what the press harped on... it didn't sell because it was fucking funny-looking. I agree, though, that in an era of shitboxes, it was actually fairly decent.
I think they added the Contour just to round out 10 and stick with the theme... really, the essential list would be the Alliance, Citation, Mustang II, and Vega, when it comes to "10 Best" cars that were actually awful pieces of shit.
