Why, because I mentioned AWD turbo? There are lots of cars that are AWD turbo. The WRX has always been ugly in my eyes. I'd rather see the AWD turbo in nice, low-slung coupe body.

Totally agree.... I have driven a Evo 9 at Wakefield back to back to my Suzuki Cappuccino. I had more fun in the Cappuccino. With the Evo I was overtaking everyone and which is great for your ego...from a driving involvement point of view. I found it boring. I didn't really have to think. If I was racing every weekend and hunting 0.001 of a sec. Evo all the way. But for the fun factor. To me it wasn't there.

Were as cars like the Cappuccino, MX5's and even the 86. All have that fun factor, you also feel alot more involved in driving them as you don't have any technology to help you drive and is a bit challenging to drive them quick. Really makes you think how you are going to appoarch a corner you do need to make sure your in the right gear etc.

But everyone is different. I am just glad that Toyota and Subaru had the guts to produce a car that went back to basics and wasn't filled with new technology.
