<em>Road & Track</em> recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.<br />
<br />
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/audi/r8/">Audi R8 V10 Plus</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/4+series/">BMW 435i</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/m6/">BMW M6 Competition Package</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet/corvette/">Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/ferrari/f12+berlinetta/">Ferrari F12 Berlinetta</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/ford/fiesta+st/">Ford Fiesta ST</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jaguar/f-type/">Jaguar F-Type V8 S</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jaguar/xfr/">Jaguar XFR-S</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/mercedes-benz/e63+amg/">Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/mercedes-benz/sls+amg/">Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/mini/cooper/">Mini John Cooper Works GP</a>; <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/nissan/gtr/">Nissan GT-R Track Edition</a>; and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/porsche/cayman/">Porsche Cayman S</a>.<br />
