Why is everyone about 0-60 times? You can't have it all. Enjoy a car that handles like an exotic, but at a fraction of the cost. Why is that not enough?
And I'm not denying anyone FI. I think FI guys are denying NA. THAT'S my problem. Having owned three turbocharged Subies and now two NA ones, I'm fine with NA. It's much more rewarding. That's where my high horse stance altitude comes from: Experience. Get some!

All I've ever owned are NA engines. Maybe my problem here is that the previous 3 were all Hondas. The FA20, given the technology these days, is not an impressive motor compared to the F22C from my S2000 or the B17A from my Integra.
