Good list. Although I would definitely put the GT4 in that list over a bunch of those cars.
In fact, that omission is pretty stupid of Road and Track... The Cayman is one of the best driver's cars out there, and they didn't include the GT version of it on their list. Yet, they included a base 911 with the new turbo engines when the GT4 is as fast, has an NA engine, more HP, and is the better driver's car overall, and costs couple grand less. |

Great to see the M2 on the list, and the most affordable by a long shot! You can see why it (and the GT350R) are so hard to find. |

Also, the F Type S doesn't even have a year in front of it. So, I am guessing it is recent cars, but not necessarily just from this year. Good point though... Quote:
As for the Americans: Z06, Viper, GT350, CTS-V, Model S... I definitely agree with these... great cars. Too bad the Viper is being discontinued. I loved that car... For SUV: I would rather have a Macan GTS over the Cayenne GTS... I have never driven one, but I can imagine a Macan GTS being a blast for its particular platform.

I'm curious why my Macan GTS or my Cayman GT4 didn't make it on there? Not being bias just realistic lol .
I'm glad to hear others think highly on the M2 as well. The car was more than what I had expected therefore I'm planning to get one. Hopefully June we will hear some news. |

Much more composed than the 335M. It doesn't bobble, which I hate on any car. What shocked me is how quiet and smooth the vehicle is. The bose is pretty good mainly due to the quiet cabin. After realizing this SUV being so good and quiet, if I were to buy again I'd consider Burmesister and noise insulated glass. The Macan definitely feels more upper class than my F80 did. The brakes are strong and feels more like the F80 vs the perfect typical Porsche brake feel. Disappointed slightly but more than acceptable especially since it's not a car. I'm not a fan of SUV until I drove the Macan. I would guess only the GLA45 would be the closest competitor and having selling my CLA45 due to the lack of steering, brakes feel with the most horrid tranny it is not even an option. Also the interior on the CLA is lacking with all that plastic and aftermarket screen. Regarding this 13 best I would like to hear R&T response on why the GT4 is not even on their 13 best? I'm really curious. Last edited by gtr; 05-25-2016 at 09:48 AM.. |

I am truly puzzles on why the GT4 is not best under 100k. Hopefully someone will ask R&T to comment because I cannot think of a reason why not. I bought lots of cars under 100k and the GT4 is by far the best. |

This omission didn't make any sense to me either...how can the GT4 NOT be on this list?
