I've never driven a Miata, or a ZR1, or XF-R, or 2010 GT500... that being said I'll rank my top 5.

1. Cayman S. As soon as I read the title of the article and saw this car was in it I knew it would win.

2. R8. Car has amazing handling with a TON of power.

3. ZR1. I cant imagine how this much power in a car that weighs that little should be anything but amazing.

4. CTS-V. M5 but better.

5. 2010 GT500. With its new upgrades to handling, I could see how this car (with its already amazing power) could beat out handling cars like the Z and miata.
