hmmm....kind of boring, would have been cool to see the road a little......anyone see this? I saw this on another board...
Motor Trend June 2007
Under heading "America's Best Handling Car"
In order from #10 to #1
Honda CSi
Corvette Z06
MazdaSpeed3
Honda S2000
BMW 3 Series
Mini Cooper S JCW GP
Mitsubishi EVO
Lotus Exige S
Cayman S
911 GT3
They were seduced, in the end, by the 415 horsepower and ceramic brakes despite "enormous rear tires with a tread compound that could wear out before your first oil change".
There were 8 ratings on steering feel, steering accuracy, steering weight/heft, chassis composure, chassis response, chassis control, cockpit ergonomics, fun-to-drive. The Cayman was never worse than 3rd and mostly second or tied for second. It was second in the Fun-To-Drive category to the GT3.
These are not price adjusted ratings.
I always knew the vettes handled like junk from personal experience but I am shocked they are that far down the list...needless to say we all know the box handles better also....
