The fun factor is, and the fun factor is not something that can be measured. So I take these comparison tests with a smile. A silly smile. Just give me the numbers, and *I'll* declare the winner.

Good post. I guess I agree and disagree. Sure there are very many parts of a car that come down to aesthetics and emotion and those are very powerful choice determinants. However, sports cars are about performance and performance is essentially all about the numbers. Most important factors that make a great sports car can be measured and are hence tested and reported; acceleration, braking, cornering g's, lap times, etc. Similarly many buyers do have a self imposed or true fiscal limitation in their vehicle choice and many do simply want the most bang for the buck in a given class of car.
