You have 2.5k posts, surely you realize that Porsche enthusiasts get excited over zenith carbs and MFI tuning and that kind of stuff, which is the antithesis of electric motors?

And it's not about "beating" anything. A Honda Odyssey would handily "beat" a 356A. So what? An Apple phone gives the exact time more accurately than a Patek Philippe. Who ever bought a longhood thinking "I wish this beast of a 50 year old car could smoke a Viper from a stoplight".
Wow. That’s some hate.

I’m all for diffeeent strokes for different folks. When I buy a car it’s mine. If I want to deface it, too bad. It’s not some museum piece. It’s not number 1. It’s a car and how I see beauty and play that out in my own garage is fit for me to decide. Haters be damned.
