Battle of the Sexes: Autobytel Editors Choose Hottest Cars for 2012

IRVINE, CA--Just in time for Valentine's Day, Autobytel Inc. editors, the company dedicated to helping dealers and car-buyers connect online, choose the hottest 2012 vehicles. Editor in Chief, Michelle Naranjo, and Assistant Editor, Jeffrey N. Ross, go head to head in a true battle of the sexes and pick the hottest cars for 2012 by price category for the romantic holiday.

“There are a lot of hot options in every price category and any of the cars I have selected would make a Valentine's sweetheart swoon.”

Picking from a wide variety of cars under $25,000, $25,000 to $50,000, $50,000 to $85,000 and $85,000 and up, these editors have some interesting ideas on what makes for a "hot" car. According to Naranjo, "There are a lot of hot options in every price category and any of the cars I have selected would make a Valentine's sweetheart swoon."

Independently of each other, Naranjo and Ross chose their top three in each category. For a full list and information on the Autobytel^® editors' picks, visit the online report. Following are their top picks:
