Totally agree with you -> pls note I drive a WRX (not owned by me though). I paddle around in my GGA (the 5 door NA Impreza) normally. I will clarify my post again. I said (somewhat sarcastically too) that Turbos attract posers. By no means does this say Turbo drivers are posers.


It is my firm belief (since S2K aparently wants me to spell any opinions outloud) that a poser would be more attracted to turbos than any NA. This is of course, the import posers; domestic muscle is of course a different story. There are certainly tons of turbos out there in the hands of skilled and knowledgeable drivers.

Taking this one step farther, a hypothetical - if you can picture a punka$$ high school kid who can't tell rwd from fwd standing in front of you, and he told you he wants a fast and flashy ride. You give him two choices, NA and Turbo, which do you think he'll be more likely to pick?
