If you reread my post, you'll see that I agree with him (except that I might've used the word "generally" rather than "inherently").

You brought up how most people think and what most people will buy. The truth is that most people buy a FWD car or an AWD/4WD SUV/truck.

You wrote that the FT86 "probably has better road feel, likely more balanced and might feel better through the corners" and the GC "wins at everything else". When I look at the 2013 GC, I think to myself: it'll have better acceleration, top speed, grip, warranty, room, and a more upscale interior, but the FT-86 will likely better at everything else.

So we simply have different priorities in a car.
