I can't wait to read that one, I'll save it for the magazine though. I am not a huge fan of reading articles online.

I get that mag...I don't like it because it doesn't give a clear answer. I'm prejudice against Ford tho...

I read the comparo.  It basically says that the GT is one of the few cars that can make a Ferrari F430 looked "pinched and upright."  They said that the Ford's acceleration is amazing, but the Ferrari gains it back in the twisties.  And finally, the loved the finesse and class of the Ferrari.

Thanks for the summary, I hate reading long articles on my computer. Anyway, I would take a 911 or DB9 over both cars as they are much more useable.

Your welcome.


I love the Ferrari and would take it most definitely over a 911.  The Aston would be a different story, since it is just drop dead gorgeous!  But my sporty side would win out and the Ferrari would be my pick.

That is one thing I don't like about MT.  They review the cars, but they never really show where they pick a winner.  They basically say stuff like "the ride is better in car X than car Y" or "Car Y is the better performer", but they never really give you a concise "in our opinion, this is the better of the cars".

Correct.  They usually say if you want X pick this car and if you want Y pick this car.

Yep, that was one of the reasons I stopped subscribing (the other two were their crappy, biased reviews and the fact they sent me at least 2 extra issues (do I really want to trust car reviews from a magazine whose publishers can't even count to 12?))

I wouldn't mind either except I don't have a bird, rabbit, or other pet cage that needs to be lined

True.  But if one gets ruined or something you still have another one.

That reminds me that over the last 3 or so years I have every issue of C/D except for one and it is just annoying the hell out of me. I don't know what I did with it, but I definitely received it and read it a couple of times, but then a month later I couldn't find it.
