Well, my car is supercharged with estimated 350whp.

They were all automatics. They all felt huge, but the Aston Martin was a boat. Very comfortable and the power was butter smooth, but it was a luxury GT cruiser way more than a light weight sports car, so it was jot really enjoyable. The weight and roll in the corners was horrendous.

The Lambo was powerful but lazy, big and dull. The interior was blocky and bland. The leather everywhere was nice, but it just felt like I was wearing a large leather jacket. Bland.

The Lambo was better than the Ferrari in terms of build quality and button layout. The Ferrari felt a little too ostentatious on the inside like someone went crazy with the aftermarket carbon fiber and buttons. The Ferrari felt smaller. The ride was super smooth but sharpened up when pushed, so best of both worlds, but still more numb than I like from a sports car. More GT.

The BRZ is small, wraps around me, has sensible controls, isn’t trying to be something wild or what it is not, looks good, has good power even compared to them, manual, slides around, makes me feel connected to the experience, etc. I could go on.

To circle back around, I would even say my car sounds better than the stock Lambo and Aston. They were too muted. Not the Ferrari.
