10 Dead or Dying Models
With Halloween and the Day of the Dead just around the corner, the time is right to start reflecting on matters of a decidedly morbid nature. It was a banner year for the Grim Reaper in the automotive industry; his terrifying scythe slashed the life out of hapless victims like the Honda S2000, the Ford Taurus X and the entire Pontiac model line.
Not all of these cars deserve to be six feet under -- you may even find one or two of them to be perfect for your needs. In that spirit, we go grave-digging to unearth the 10 best of the bunch.

Vehicles like the Entourage and the Vibe still soldier on as twins: Sedona and Matrix.
greenpony, is the Matrix going to keep going? I thought it was made in the closing Nummi plant.
It's good to see the Taurus-X finally getting a little credit, even if it is on it's death bed.
Why on Earth would Audi get rid of the V10 R8? Sure, I'm one of those who wouldn't really want the V10 (I think the V8 is great), but luxury cars are all about excess and having the V10 bolsters the R8's luxury/exotic credentials......
If Honda doesn't replace the S2000, I see them going the way of Toyota: completely losing their way when it comes to interesting cars.
