Arch, I haven't had the pleasure of driving a turbo yet so I don't know about that side of the equation. But I do have experience with driving all 3 different N/As. The S is a blast-AFTER you get going. 3500 and up and its TONS of fun. However, a hyundai will beat you off the line! I also appreciate the rawness of that crazy torque curve.

The S2 is almost boring. I mean, the power is so smooth and even you don't even realize it. I love it but it is MUCH more civilized than the S-and a LOT quicker! From what I have read, the turbo is altogether different still. As has been mentioned, get out and drive as many different ones as you can.

On that note, I recently met another local guy with an S. We switched cars just for fun. Both '87 16 valves with similar mileage. However, the ride was totally different! He loved my car because the power was smooth. I hadn't driven another so I was pretty shocked at how sluggish his was. I attribute this to a total rebuild of my fuel system, injectors, dampener, regulator, filter and lines. I am telling you this because it wasn't until then that I realized EACH individual CAR feels and rides differently. Get out there and enjoy!
