0-60.

WHO CARES?

I like a fast car. I want the butt dynometer to register some Gs (from the car you sicko...). But there is more to an automobile than how fast it gets you to 60mph.

Any cut rate engineer in Detroit can drop a 7.0 liter engine in to whatever massive POS they happen to be producing at the time and make it go 'fast'. The Japanese can take wretched little economy cars, throw in a leaf blowers pushing 20psi, and make it 'fast'.

WHO THE F*CK CARES?

How about the howl of a flat six as it rips past 6000rpm?

How about a 24 year old car that handles like its on rails?

How about a well laid out interior that looks modern after 24 years?

I was in my 82 SC tonight. No cars around, screaming down an one ramp to I-5. My car is by no means totally sorted, but still.....its poetry in motion.

How can people not 'get it'?

How can the dickhead in the Evo not notice that NO ONE even glances at his car, but people will stop in parking look to look at a 30 year old Porsche? Its art vs. craft you dolt.

BAH! Tis a *****e world, and the wine has a hold of my tounge.....
