Lauren - I think we have different experiences which accounts for our different opinions. I have done most of my tracking and autocross in turbo cars, and the n/a cars that I have run haven't had the kind of throttle response your vehicles have. If you're ever in the area, you should come track my MR2 with me, as it has the best throttle response of anything boosted I have ever driven (better than most n/a cars, actually). Please don't misunderstand, I fully intend on purchasing the n/a version of the car. I have no desire to live with a turbo car on a day-to-day basis. And I couldn't agree more, 200hp n/a will be perfect for my purposes!
