Especially us older folks.

Now, THIS, IMHO is a good engine sound ...... no matter what you do to the exhaust on a FA20 engine, it will never sound as good as this.

hmmm......I wonder if an old OHV Ford V-8 would fit in my FR-S ........

When I'm on the highway and trying to pass cars, I prefer staying in the power band rather than downshifting to pass, upshifting to go back to <4k RPM, and repeat.

I save the fun downshift and GTFO for those glorious moments when I reach the end of road construction and the single lane opens back up to a nice empty three lane highway. Go from cruising 30-40 in 3rd to 2nd while hopping into an empty lane, then 3rd, then 4th. Of course that lasts about 10 seconds before I have to drop down to 60MPH

Just who turned this thread into a "pick on humfrz" thread ......

If I wanted more pain, I could go back to the dentist.

Although, it did feel quite good, when that cute dental hygienist, would push her soft, warm thigh into my shoulder ......
