Not that I really care about the results of the actual article; only that it's a great example of the arbitrary nature of magazine comparisons when you allow 'feelings' to outweigh actual comparisons of measurable data.

That's what I was trying to say in my last comment. These cars were not made to set laptimes, they were made for "feelings". Even though the 86 is very slightly faster than the RF, the top down experience, and smaller size seem to make the car more enjoyable to drive during the daily commute.
If you cared about measureable data then the Ecoboost Mustang with PP would probably blow both of these cars out of the water.
