all of us on this site are obviously car people, and for us, we always will crave more, be it the newest, fastest, most stylish, unique, you name it... its a neverending cycle...

I can't say I'd agree. I've beat around the bush with cars and tuning basically since I could handle tools (and a car for that matter)... and currently... I'd much prefer a mild-powered screaming little street car that can handle the corners as opposed to a big power big torque turbo machine that can do little more with that power, other than go straight. I guess maybe cause I was greased up that way (big block V8's... turbo straight 6's) since I was little changed my outlook on what makes a car really shine... ENJOYMENT. Of course I'd love to have a big power dragster, or a turbo charged beast, but my appetite craves twists and curves... Straight lines will always come to an end...

Maybe a well balanced machine with power to pull the straights and agility to thrash the corners... hmm... maybe... but each sacrifices for the other in some ways...

you so read my post the wrong way (due to my bad wording, however!) lol... When i said newest, fastest, most stylish, ect... i diddent mean all rolled into one (although that would be nice as well biggrin.gif ). personally my thing is to have a decently fast car that can handle, I agree with you 100% on that one... straight lines are boring. I was basically saying that we all love cars for one reason or another- some love the speed, some love the styling, some love the ability to work on them, and so on. We love out cars differently from our washing machine, because to us it goes way beyond getting to the grocery store and back, that sorta thing.
