Classic BS Porschelovers IMO
The "best drivers' car" is the slowest on the track, the slowest in the drag strip, and is "good" because offers/requires the least amount of emotional input when driving.
That's why it's the best? It makes you feel better than you really are?
That's kinda like saying you should buy a player piano because it makes you sound better than one you could play yourself.
IMO, a great car makes you want to feel as if you have something to do with driving it. That your talent is squeezing out something that only a few could do to the same degree.
Without risk, there is no reward. A car should not feel too perfect. Perfection is boring.
The whole point of driving is the emotions you get in doing it. Otherwise, just let your wife drive you around.
