What we don't like is having our choices made for us by clueless idiots. I speak not of Porsche, but of the jackasses that have decreed what future CAFE mileage standards will be. When I read that a fleet of Prius'es wouldn't meet the eventual standard, I figured sooner or later there will be no fun cars. Period.
Just like I don't want a ****ing PDK, I don't want some ******* dictating what I drive.
I've owned a bunch of turbos and they are fine if they are not the only car in the garage. I've owned 4 cylinder cars, too and, I don't like them. Especially, if they are turbocharged. I don't like the feel, the sound, or their typical powerband.
I sometimes wonder if the 919 project was handicapped from the start, because Porsche opted for a 4 cylinder, not because that was the best choice, but because that choice could be used down the road for marketing propaganda. You know, to convince us that turbo 4's were all the rage... Food for thought...
