I chose this article because it is very interesting to me to see which cars under 100 thousand dollars have the best handling. This article tested a wide variety of vehicles all with very different features and prices. In this article is was surprised to see that the GTI was listed, I was surprised by this because it is cheaper than many of the others by a wide range, and because it is the car I am getting soon. Also, the article said that even though the GTI has only 200 hp, that it kept up with the other much faster cars around the turns. The second to last car was the Z06 corvette, I was not surprised that this car was featured because of its speed, but I was surprised that it was featured because of the stereotype that american muscle cars can not turn. The next car was the Nissan GTR, I learned that it does not have the handling that I thought it did. I was surprised that it was only just above the corvette because I have heard from other reviews and T.V. shows that it has great handling. The next car was the BMW M3, I was not surprised that it was featured in this test; however, I was surprised that it did not handle as well as I thought it would because I have seen many in action and they seem like great all around cars. After that, was the mazda rx-8, I was surprised at how well this car did for the price that it is, which is less than that of the GTI. The other cars that were the Lotus Elise and the Porsche Boxster I was not surprised about because of their high prices, light weight bodies, and adequate amounts of power.
