Everyone’s running a car of the year poll these days, including Moto.pl
Theirs is a little different in that cars are pitted against one another in a bracket arrangement. The Saab 9-5 has to defeat the BMW X3 before it can move on to the second round, where it will take on either the Peugeot RCX or the Ford C-Max.
Yes, the pairings are a little obtuse, but in the end, there can still be only one.
If you feel like having a vote, click here and scroll down until the bracket arrangement appears (it may take a few moments).
If the 9-5 gets past the X3, you may called to perform this service once again (and again, and again)
Done!
+1
Done.
It seems you have to click the orange “głosuj” link next to the car image.
And there is a Poll on http://www.autozeitung.de/ but I think this one is not easy to win
Ooooh they got crafty! Trying to split the Saab vote by putting the 9-4x and the 9-5 SC. We should either pick one or really push this one to the top of the page. I love these polls 🙂
Both done! Com’on everybody we need votes in the autozeitung. So far we only got 1 pct of the total votes.
The Top 5 currently – I suggest the forces are joined on the 9-5 Kombi and try to reach the top 3;
1. Oper Zafira (22 %)
2. Opel Astra GSI (18 %)
3. Citroen DS5 (13 %)
4. Ford Focus (11 %)
4. VW Jetta (11 %)
…
Saab 9-5 Kombi (1 %)
I did the autozeitung, 9-5 has 353 votes, 9-4X 97, need to get this one in a post on the front in order to win this one.
381 now 🙂
I’ve voted both from home and work, but we’re not budging from 1%.
Steven: Would it be possible to have a seperate “voting” section where current polls could be published so that it would always be visible which ones we’re involved in at the moment?
I fear this particular thread has been buried too deep in the SU archives by now so that many of us aren’t aware of the polls at all.
@Rune:
I think they don’t deny you to vote several times, even without blocking cookies of the site 🙂
Passed 2% now – but about 8.000 votes behind the leading car (Opel Zafira). And no, the vote is not for the most crappy car that will arrive in 2011…
Just click “Abstimmen” button repeatedly very fast, so fast that the result page doesn’t get time to load, that way you can hammer your mouse button and submit hundreds of votes per minute.
Hahaha, yesterday only 7% of the votes and now 23% of the votes. The 9-5 is by far the most popular car. What makes you think that this poll would not be easy to win for Saab?
Look now, somthing happend ower the night….9-5 coming strong
Both saabs coming strong.
Yes, now the Saab 9-5 Kombi is number one with 27% and Saab 9-4X number two with 17%. Keep voting Saab lovers!
This kind of poll is excellent for voting tactics. Why not vote in order to set up the 9-5 against an easy target in the next round…?
Fredrik,I like your way of tactical thinking!
Lets go for it!
Done!
Weird setup, though…
Done!
Let the battle begin!! To arms!!! :))
I think that the have put the cars randomly in pairs, you also have the Audi A1 against the Jaguar XJ and the Volvo S60 against the Porsche 911…
Now the 9-5 has won against the X3. Peugeot RCZ is the new duelist.
Time to vote again good folks!
Done!
done
I guess this means “excellent taste” in polish? 🙂
“Dziękujemy za oddanie głosu”
Must be, I get that each time I vote for Saab 😉
Really it means Thank you for voting.
Wich one of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and the BMW 5 Series will be the easiest opponent for the 9-5 in the next round? I’m not sure.
The Giulietta has come in second in every poll I´ve seen, I think that is our main competitor.
Let’s vote for the bimmer then.
Nie ma to jak Saab 🙂
I didn’t get the polish poll but on the german I managed to vote 11 times just by going back after voting so I’ve done my job for central Europe tonight.
I’d love to vote but don’t see how (the Polish one)
above the comments-section, and the aston martin there´s a java-thingy, you have to wait for it to load. Then just click on the thumbnail of the car you like, also if there indeed is a certain car you like, you can also vote in the other semi-finals for a car that will make up the little resistance in the final 🙂
9-5 reached round 2. – Do it a again, folks!
Done. So what do you think?BMW or Alfa in the next round? Wouldn`t it be nice to have a go at the 5 series?
Come on guys!
As Henrik said earlier it is very likely that the Alfa is a stronger opponent than the Bimmer. Therefor I’ve voted for the latter.
Now I am voting too.
Car of the Year poll in Luxemburg:

Saab competes in the category C !
Both saabs on top, 1 and 2
at the autozeitung poll.
Done! (Moto.pl!)
I also voted in http://www.autozeitung.de. Saab 9-5 has gone up to 26%.
We have first and second place…..way to go!
The Polish website just started ROUND 3!
Gentlemen, start your voting!
The 9-5 is up in the third round now in Poland, up against the Giulietta, Vote!
The Guilietta can be a tough cracker to beat, but if we manage this one the next round should be a cake walk.
Done
Done!
Could be an all Swedish semi final, since the V60 also won round 3.Don’t know if that’s good or bad…
It is very good. I’d love to see the 9-5 beat the Volvo.
18’642 Votes! Call that massive! Good on ya folks!
Hey guys, don’t forget to vote @ http://moto.pl/MotoPL/1,88389,8969499,Wybierz_Samochod_Roku_2010_Moto_pl_.html and forward the link to your friends and your local Saab Club. This is a massive challenge now against the Alfa!
Oh boy we are up against a real nice Alfa now boys and girls. Lets make sure we beat the Alfa so we can conquer the Volvo next!
Yo can still vote here for the 9-4X even though it is an old article:
http://www.autozeitung.de/umfragen/welche-neuheit-ist-ihr-favorit-auf-der-la-auto-show-2010
Time to vote only until 3:00 PM CET!
Saab 9-5 lost the match against the alfa. Well done Alfa!
Thanks for all the support guys! Alas, we lost against the Alfa…
At least we can say that it was the most hotly contested duel in round 3, and the toughest the Giulietta had to face so far…
We went down with a real fight. I voted for the Alfa in the fourthe round.
So close…
The Alfa Romeo Giuletta won the entire (Polish) contest against the Citroen DS3.
On the Auto-Zeitung poll, the top two entries are Saab 9-5 Kombi (28%) and Saab 9-4X (17%). I don’t know for how long this contest will be open, so there is still time to vote.
