And as for "performance" I suppose I don't really care, or at least I don't care about the metric the way you're likely defining it. 

My F150 performs better than any other car I've ever owned.  It's faster, smoother, more reliable, more utilitarian, and more comfortable.   

Only way I'd like it better, is if it had all that, in the package of a full-sized American SUV. :)

I feel the same about my Ram1500. Bullet proof. 
But- this was ( supposedly) a thread about sporty cars.

Car mag "performance" is either time on a track or some combination of measurements of acceleration, braking, skid pad, figure 8 ...

They do add commentary of course, and can note that a car while not excellent in metrics may still be quite fun to drive.

I'm sure they have several of those for promotional events around the country.  I saw one live up close in Fredericksburg, Texas a few years ago.  The kids wanted to go for a ride but it was parked and we couldn't find the drivers.
