True, but people like to compare things .... lesser dollar value versus a bit higher dollar value, or two vehicles from the same manufacture (which in this case isn't the same : Toy/Subaru vs. Toy/BMW ).
The COG thing, yeah it depends upon where they are measuring from/to. Did they then measure 2-3 times to get a good accurate measurement ? I'd think it's easy to make a claim like this, but be off by 3mm (the new Supra say is 3mm taller) , and come out in some press meeting saying "it was an honest mistake" after the fact.
Some posters here have said a certain generation Miata and late model Corvette has a bit lower COG then the 86. There was a posting/info here that clearly said the LFA and .... I think it was a 455 Ferarri has a bit lower COG by 10-20mm then the 86. Motor Trend/Car and Driver needs to do a dedicated article just on COG, how it's measured , and say the top 25 sports cars that have the lowest...... in the last 50-60 years of production.
