First Annual Cars.com Shoppers' Choice Awards

It's always nice to know what cars real drivers actually prefer. While they may enjoy different aspects of driving compared to the other award givers, they tend to give a little more on road insight rather than just what looks good on paper. Just like products such as the best way to lose weight.

Cars.com, one of the nation’s leading resources for buying and selling a car, announced that the Ford Mustang has been selected by the site’s users as the winner of its first annual Shoppers’ Choice Award.

Finalists were selected based on key shopping indicators and owner feedback on Cars.com including leads to dealers, vehicle searches on the site and volume and quality of consumer vehicle reviews collected on Cars.com. Additionally, thousands of consumer votes via the Cars.com’s Facebook page were tallied, and the Ford Mustang rose above the other contenders as the Shoppers’ Choice Award winner.

“The Mustang is -- and has always been -- an iconic car with a loyal following,” said Cars.com editor-in-chief Patrick Olsen. “Over the years it has remained a high-quality, fun car to own, and it’s no surprise it won. Ford should be proud of this win because it’s a direct recommendation from Mustang owners.”

The 10 finalists for the Shoppers’ Choice Award were (in alphabetical order):

Cadillac Escalade - Cadillac Buyers Guide
