I am only speaking from my experience and how I feel. Which is what everyone is doing also. Even the experts have differing thoughts on cars. In the end, it is all up to your personal liking.
LOL, the MX5 didn't spank anything except in the balanced handling category. That test was completely subjective.

The M3 and the GT do not handle better and are not the better driver's cars. I am sure there are more experts that will say that; however they may be better track cars (depending on the track). I will attest to that myself. That said, I will be tracking my car later, but even at that point, I do not care about lap times, I am in it for driving experience. For me the Z gives me the EXACT experience I want. It is a smaller, wide, and powerful car. The very same reason many BMW M3 guys want the 1 M Coupe. It is smaller and a better handler (in theory); more tossable. Is the Stang a better handler than an RX8? NO, but according to your theory, looking at lap times, it is far superior. And we KNOW it is not..
The GT may not be a better drivers car but it handles just as well as all the cars you stated. Out of all the professional and personal opinions I have read on the 11 mustang GT it is capable of out handling many cars you would think otherwise. All I'm saying is the GT is no slouch.
