I consider handling a car's ability to respond to emergency maneuvers above 50 mph. I have no care for a car that holds turns great on a predefined track. A real race has a lot of danger and also so does high speed city driving. The response of a car, ability for it not to flex back and forth creating bad wiggle side to side momentum, and ability to not understeer plow on braking hard while on a curve is how i define it. also, the ability to hit a pothole at 50mph on a turn and for the tires to not skitter across the road but grab immediately and comfortably. That is actual handling.
