A GREAT IDEA, and I agree that the seat belt discussion is getting a bit 
old.  Now, as to my choices.

First, let me say that I find it a bit difficult to choose a single best 
and worst car, because there are so many good and (unfortunately) bad cars
out there.  So, let me list what I consider a couple of the best (though I 
have no driving experience on any of the cars I will mention).

Best Sports/GT: Ferrari Daytona, Testarossa, or GTO (new), with several
	Porsches as greatfully accepted second choices.

Best Sedan: Merc 560SEL(C) is probably the best sedan in the World.

As an aside, let me add that the VW GTI (both old and new models) are
wonderful cars if you *are* on a budget.

Worst Sports/GT: Is there a worst sports/GT? :-)

Worst Sedan: Probably a Skoda, any Skoda, though I can think of many
	cars that deserve dishonable mention.
