I rented a GT stang, no Pp or anything and flung it around back roads in Nova Scotia for an hr or. Was a ton of fun, sounded like it had a serious attitude problem.

But that's my point. You drove it, and it delivered. Acceleration, sound, edge of your seat feel. This other joker talks about appreciating performance without any quantifiable figures, while actively dissing quantifiable figures! Feel can be quantified too. So what is it? How quickly the heated seats turn on?
I'm an engineer. I need numbers.
