I have never had a "ground pounding" fast car. Don't care to start now. Most of the fun of the 914 was driving it hard just to go the speed limit. Today's modern cars can be going into handcuffs and jail speeds in mere seconds. My 911 model was the fastest car sold in North America in 1984. Fastest 0-60, fastest 1/4 mile and fastest top speed and it has a whole 200 HP at the crank in stock form. In 1985 Porsche reintroduced the Turbo model and moved the bar way higher.
My how times have changed. Now it is easy to buy many different cars with 500+ HP and not hard to get the 700+ HP range. Just nuts.
