That's not exactly my question. My question is what are the specs of the road test reports? (sort of, also just a rant below) In general they are shorter, than say a Evo article, but I suppose they are short and to the point.

There are times when I would like to hear a little more. With the Boxster S hearing about the boot space and the design of the top would have been nice. I also like techy technical info like compression ratio's, electric wire throttle, individual throttle bodies, or lack of (anything that is dif. or just a design choice). I like also, comparisons of the experience against other cars (this is not rocket science). A comparison/mention of just the sound, grip, turn in, and tranny is so meaningful and enjoyable to the reader.

There are some cars that are soo anticipated that a longer article might be justifed. (Say Murcielago)

But don't get me wrong. PH website is fantastic. It's the best one stop petrol spike on the internet where I think many of us share very simular expectations from our sports cars. We like rides that are involved!
