997S vs AM Vantage (C&D 3/06)

[coochas]

I just poked through the latest comparo of the 997S to other machinery - namely this month's Car & Driver comparison to the Aston Vantage.
They ranked the Vantage #1 and 997S #2 by a one point difference of 213 to 212.
Not that I really care about 'who wins' but what chaps my ass is how the numbers added up:
997S wins 9 variable "Vehicle" section by 3 points,
997S wins 5 variable "Drivetrain" section by 5 points,
Aston wins 5 variable "Chassis" section by 1 point.

So,...how come the Aston won the comparison????
Because of the subjective "gotta-have-it-factor" (4 points to Aston) and "fun-to-drive factor" (4 points to Aston).
I checked the author of the article and believe it or not it was not Jeremy Clarkson!!!!!!!!!!!

I put the article links on my site:
