* [[HomeFieldAdvantage Home Field Advantage]]: In both ''Best Motoring'' and ''Best Motor TV'', Japanese vehicles routinely beat much more powerful European cars such as Ferraris and Porsches. There has been criticism of "glorifying" the Honda NSX and the Nissan Skyline GT-R. In later issues of ''Best Motoring'', and ''Best Motor TV'', the Nissan GT-R also gets this treatment.
