I realize you can't just say about the ride, but surprised that the ride of a car built for the track would be more comfortable than a luxury sports coupe intended as a daily. Maybe so, since this article is performance-slanted.

I am sure the Mach 1 is a great car and tons of fun - and I would be surprised if it didn't win this comparison. It is a different class of car and should be compared to an M2, RC-F, or NISMO.
The one thing to note about the Mach 1 in any of these comparisons is the tires that comes with that package. They are not only Cup 2 but MASSIVE Cup 2 tires and it's a ridiculous advantage for the Mustang. Even at that it was a split decision as some still preferred the Supra (finished one point behind) which they kind of skewed the results by giving it such a low score for appearance.
