Sorry to interrupt the conversation about naturally aspirated engines (which I adore, like you do). I think there is also one engine that somehow manages to 'unite' car enthusiasts all over the world because it is turbocharged but sounds like an N/A. If the GT3's engine is affectionately called a Mezger, then the F40 engine (and the earlier GTO's for that matter) must undoubtedly be called a Materazzi. I would recommend you try to find an F40 and locate Materazzi (he's in his 80's now) and talk about an engine that is a pussycat below 3000 rpm and a tiger up to the red-line. A little-known fact is that the ~480HP it makes and the lag it has could have been a lot worse if he'd chosen to use the race-spec calibration. Instead the stamping on the engine blocks of the F40 engines denote that it's the version which was destined for Group B rallying (as opposed to Group B circuit racing which never materialised) and hence had smaller turbos and different dump-valves & wastegates. If you have enough saved up and 'only' need two drivers cars, then you could do a lot worse than own a GT3RS and and F40.

My Suzuki Swift Sport z32 is a NA hero. Cost me £6k, cheap to run and you can thrash it and LOVE it on normal roads. It’s fast because of it’s usability with the knife-edge, spine-tingling throttle response you just don’t get with turbo cars. It will hold it’s value but is not going to appreciate so you don’t feel you have to garage it and protect it - you can do what it was meant to do - drive it hard!!! 😋

1/4 the price? COOL!!! I’ll take 2 of them… 1 to use, and 1 to lose…. Just like pencils in Jr High… OH OH! ….And I want mines to have that cool “red line” at the top of the steering wheel, it would be a shame to be coming out of a sharp turn and not realize (or just forget), to move the wheel BACK to the center position 3 inches to the right or left, and just drift off the road…. But that cool steering wheel line will remind me that the wheel and that line need to line up to the very top to maneuver the vehicle into the position to go straight again…. BRILLIANT. Just BRILLIANT, and at only 3500 dollars to apply that special hand drawn and applied accoutrements, I feel Porsche hits it out of the park. Such a bargain for such innovative tech. I know I often forget to straighten that wheel after coming out of a turn at high speeds headed back from Ralph’s….Then Poof! I need a new Porsche. …It gets pricy after a while….
