porsche handled better, better power to weight, weighed less, has more horsepower, 1.4 second faster 0-60, 1.4 second faster quarter mile, much better figure 8 (but camaro has better lateral acceleration? that makes no sense)

Porsche has a higher speed around every turn, yet camaro was somehow faster overall? How does that even make sense?

also don't believe the braking, with smaller brakes and weighing 250 lbs more the camaro somehow stopped better?

Sure camaro is cheaper, so if that's all you go by then camaro is clear winner

thinking someone screwed up the numbers

doesn't matter in the long run, these magazines are always american biased, then you run into a new v8 camaro and it can't hang with a 2.7 boxster
