Summary

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel discuss the best Goldilocks cars – the pick of the bunch, the highlight of the model range. Sometimes they are the most powerful, other times the least, and often they come from right in the middle of the line-up. So which Porsche Boxster is best? How much power do you really want in your Caterham Seven? Is the most expensive Porsche 911 the best? Was the hardcore R the best Mercedes-AMG GT? What was the most enjoyable Audi R8?
