See the likeness of our statements there? Neither of us reinforced it. Basically handling is very subjective- in itself it technically means the nuetrality in a cars cornering- too much understeer is bad, too much oversteer is also bad, however there are all sorts of other factors that contribute to handling (e.g. Weight distribution, suspension firmess, suspension design etc.)

There is actually no measure of handling other than the Skidpad, that in itself is only there for a vague idea; if we were to use that to base how well a car handles, then a Subaru Legacy 2.5 would outhandle a Z06.
