    I would say that the 911 was a great long term choice for the year. I was not expecting it--for some reason I always thought it would be more hard-edged than it is, particularly with the big wheels, but I was wrong. It definitely made the SLS look like a poor daily driver in comparison. Hopefully you have a nice wrap-up article written. Lately, I don't understand why so many cars have no posts for 2-3 months at a time, without a wrap-up, or in some cases absolutely no wrap-up at all, just moved from the current to the past long-term road test menu.

    It seems that maybe they don't want to discuss issues that came up.
    Like with the Jeep Wrangler. It needed a new cylinder head and the tail gate cracked. But there was no follow up, let alone a wrap up.
    I own the same model year Wrangler, which is why I bring up this model. The promise of the long term test which I faithfully followed ended up left wanting. After 12 months they just left unanswered questions.
    Seems par for the course.
