Consumer Reports names first-timers Ford Mustang, Kia Sorento among 6 New Top Picks for 2011

    --  SPORTY CAR: Ford Mustang. One of the high points of the Mustang ($28,880
        to $43,880) is the strong rumbling V8 engine that propels CR's coupe and
        convertible test cars. It delivers scorching acceleration, a great
        exhaust sound, and good fuel economy for the class. For 2011, the
        Mustang received a refined, punchy V6, which provides strong
        acceleration and a decent 24 mpg overall with a manual transmission.
    --  FAMILY HAULER: Toyota Sienna. The Sienna ($35,810 to $38,201) has earned
        a place in the Top Picks list three out of the past five years.
        Redesigned for 2011, the current model is still a very comfortable
        versatile minivan with excellent reliability. The spacious cabin can
        seat up to eight people. The engine delivers lively performance and
        decent fuel economy. And the Sienna is still the only minivan available
        with all-wheel drive.
