The persons responsible for picking out the top 5 should have read up on performance and handling before attempting this magazine writing business.
The results were as follows:

1. Audi R8
2. Nissan GT-R
3. BMW M3
4. Mazda RX-8
5. Porsche 911 Turbo
6. Mitsubishi Evo MR
7. Dodge Viper ACR
8. Mini Cooper S
9. Chevrolet Cobalt SS
10. Ford Shelby GT500KR

I applaud Randy Pobst, who found something positive to say about the Mazda RX-8, which came out 4th in rankings in front of the Porsche 911 Turbo and the Dodge Viper ACR. This truly proves that any magazine opinion can be bought and sold for dinners, track rentals, testing facilities and that the general commentary in these magazines is usually BS.
