    Maybe anyone that posts nearly every day and has over 7500 posts?

    I wanted to limit nominations precisely for the problem NSX mentions.

    I'd also limit to production road cars introduced in 2011.
    How does one define production? An age old problem. Generally accepted to be produced in significant qualities or otherwise made by a reputable manufacturer, allowing say, a Zonda to still qualify?

    Well, then anything that can be registered for the road? That would define it clearly.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    And an engine. And more than two wheels.
    Money can't buy you friends, but you do get a better class of enemy.

    Yeah, that sounds right. Road legal and introduced in 2011. Thinking North Americanly, would this exclude 2011 MY years cars and only allow 2012s?

    Anything that has been introduced from the 1st of January to the last day of nominations, I'd say. And I'd forget about the whole MY malarkey. It just confuses things.
