2007 Formula One rookie Lewis Hamilton lands on the podium in his first nine races, winning at Montreal, Indianapolis, Hungary and Japan.

Jaguar's C-XF concept snags Best in Show honors from AutoWeek editors at the Detroit show, but Jag pulls it off its stand before the public can see it. The Chevrolet Volt is Most Significant, the Dodge Viper SRT10 is Most Fun, and the Ford Interceptor is Best Concept.

Chrysler is sold to Cerberus Capital Management, which brings in previously excused Home Depot CEO Bob Nardelli to run the joint. Cerberus hires Jim Press from Toyota to team him with Chrysler's Tom LaSorda as presidents.

After selling Aston Martin, Ford puts Land Rover and Jaguar up for sale.

AW starts printing weekly 50th-anni-versary spreads (the feature you're reading now) in July.

It's anniversary fever! Ford celebrates 75 years of the '32 and the flathead V8. England's Brooklands Circuit is 100. Turning 50 are the '57 Chevy; Sports Car Club of America (SCCA); the Madison Avenue Sport Car Driving and Chowder Society; Toyota in the United States. Mazda marks 40 years of rotary engines, Maranello holds fireworks for Ferrari's 60th, and Swedes storm Trollhattan for Saab at 60. Porsche Rennsport Reunion III promotes 25 years of the 956/962. The Baja 1000 breaks out balloons for its 40th.
