Motor Trend Decides 2012's Best Drivers Car

 

MotorTrend’s finally come up with a winner for their annual best driver’s car competition, in what we’re sure must’ve been an absolutely agonizing experience. I mean could you imagine? They had to take some of the most focused and exciting cars over the past year to a track, drive them over and over again, and then argue over which one is the most enjoyable. It must’ve been like pulling teeth.

Aside from driving the snot of these nine sport’s cars, they also rigged them up to the their standard bunch of tests to break down what makes each car special. And lets be real: they’re all special. From McLaren’s F1 inspired MP4-12C to the spunky (but slow) Subaru BRZ, they’ve all got something to offer. The ultimate question that they seek to answer, is which car is the best driver’s car. Not which is the fastest, or most track capable, or best at picking up ladies on the boulevard, but the one that is the most fun to drive.

It’s a pretty subjective criteria and they might not pick your favorite, but there’s a bevy of wonderful hardware here. The video is long at solid 30 minutes, so you might want to skip around. Or if you have the time just enjoy the whole, extremely thorough thing.
