People on this forum base things on subjective stuff all the time. If you didn't, then everyone here would just buy a used Corvette (because objectively- that's a better performer). I think Motor Trend does make a distinction between when they are doing performance tests vs comparo's. Comparo's seem to keep the performance numbers in mind, but they look at the subjective side more.

As far as payouts, Porsche doesn't seem to advertise much at all compared to Audi so I can't say it was a buy-off. And the R8 V10 seems to be a MT favorite over the Turbo 911? Honestly I think the boxster is basically the class of the field in the smaller 2 seat roadster type car and has been for years.
