Its funny how the GC tied with the Miata. I guess they both had ups and downs that leveled out.

I trust R&T far more than any other automotive magazine. One of the reasons is the informative data panel from test drive articles. Here's the link to the one for this comparison.
http://www.roadandtrack.com/var/ezfl...d904352378.pdf I'd add the link to the opening post. If you care about the BRZ, spend some time analyzing the stats in this PDF. |

How in the heck did the BRZ lose in storage space to a freaking Miata, by no small margin either...
I know it is subjective but I don't know how they found the Miata to be the best looking. I've always thought the Miata has remained one of the most uninspired looking cars year after year. Edit: Disregard all that, I'm a moron. Last edited by MmmHamSandwich; 05-24-2012 at 10:22 PM. |
