Just got the August issue. They compare 13 cars in 4 levels by price and in level 1 (the lowest of course), the MS3, Mini Cooper S And Pontiac Solstice GXP were compared. The track times were divided in sectors of the Virginia International Raceway.

The MS3 virtually ties with the Solstice overall in Level 1.

But have fun comparing the MS3 with the more expensive cars for peak speed, cornering grip, exit speed and sector time. You'l be surprised how well our car stacks up to or beats such cars as the BMW Z4 coupe and 335i coupe and the Shelby GT500, among others.

ZoomZoom indeed!
