2019 Performance Car of the Year - Not the Pista

Interesting, making huge numbers and can’t make a sub 11 1/4.

 

And now the view from the other side of the pond!!

Interesting the cars that were not included in each article!!

 

(Not spoiling the ending because some folks want to read the article themselves)
Was pretty surprised by R&T decision. Once I saw the second place’s name, I thought no one else had a chance. That’s the one car I’d pick over the pista.

 

Pista 3s slower than the gt2rs. Wow.

 

I did not read the 4 pages of opinions and tried to just find “the list” ...........
But after not finding the list I realized that was also ........opinions and some facts
To each his own, if you like it buy it and drive it.
Someone will always build a faster car with better performance within a few months.

 

The article wasnt 'fastest car' it was best performance car which allows it to be very subjective. Things like fun to drive will count a lot

My BMW M Roadster wasnt as fast or expensive as my 355/360/viper/California but man was it fun

Unless you are driving for money, fun is, to me, the most important metric.

 

The last dozen cars I've purchased I've done so without driving them first and this is no different to me. The order is simple

1-Senna
2-Pista
3-GT2 RS

ZR1

 

This's test is a big joke

 

The location of the track ..ie the NCM track should make the results predictable

 

Ferrari’s response: Porsche cheated. Ferrari should have been allowed to bring a team of factory mechanics and a fleet of properly prepped cars for this track. Any testing done with customers’ cars (without Ferrari mechanics standing by) is obviously cheating done by McLaren and Porsche.

 

It’s a little predictable actually. Americans can’t not include the corvette in any discussion, while the UK has to include the jag and AM.
The politics of economics.
