If you want to compare a true handling track, just compare the Solo Classes that each respective car will be in: BRZ = C or D, Mustang = F.

But of course this doesn't mean anything to you because you believe that Streets of Willow Springs has somehow become the ultimate standard for determining how well a car handles, while ignoring the actual races/tracks that this car will be seen in.
Then again, race times are still a ridiculous metric because the Miata beats cars that are 10 times its price in Solo. Does this mean the Miata is the only car worth buying? Of course not. What's important is PREFERENCE and FEEL - and we tend to put some thought and weight into the words these reviewers are talking about instead of just a single lap time from a single track.
Spacey put it really well...

never once did i say that the mustang handles better than the frs so i dont know why you are trying to call me out on it.
calling a solo event held in a parking lot a track event is a stretch. its pretty cool when you put words in peoples mouths. i think that streets is way more technical than big willow. i think that streets is a technical track. thats all. i could just as easily use this stupid tactic on your post and say that car and driver tested a miata and bentley on an auto x and the bently won. that has to be the best handling car. do you see how that reasoning sounds coming from the other end?
just like power doesn not equate to fun, neither does handling.
