2016 Motor Trend Best Driver's Car
Figured I'd post all of them here in one thread for everybody to enjoy. I'll add the rest as they make their way onto Youtube. I won't give anything away, but I have to say, I'm really surprised when it comes to that new Camaro. Definitely a bargain considering the level of performance.

Were these the only cars compared? The cheapest is still over 40k.

I wouldn't be surprised if they picked the 350R, that's for sure.

Chevy's performance division is kicking ass and taking names right now.
Looking at these laptimes and CD Lightning Lap, their performance cars are equaling cars far above their price. Camaro V6 1LE = S550 Mustang GT PP / Focus RS / Hellcat Camaro SS 1LE = Cayman GT4 / M4 GTS C7 Vette GS = 991 GT3 RS / McLaren 570S C7 Vette Z06* = 488GTB / Viper ACR / McLaren 650S

Original post updated with the last of the cars.
My comment stands about the Camaro.

FRS/BRZ has already been tested. So has the MX5, Fiesta/Focus ST, Golf R, etc. So, there isn't really much out there that's new to test. Sucks that Ferrari is so stupid when it comes to these tests, and won't give MT a car. I'd love to see how the new 488GTB did in comparison.

So many hot Carrera models and they went with the second from the bottom, a C2S? Sigh. The 911R was new this year, why not that?
