i think for me, straight-line speed is no longer a priority. and a car that feels like you are doing 60mph when it's really 120mph, likely means there are many layers of technology insulating you from that sensation of speed.

i don't want a car that is difficult to drive. i want the driving experience of a car that rewards you with the effort you put in.

perhaps this is the allure of a manual transmission, and the progressive dyno curves of a NA engine.

i do agree that the experience is getting neutered by each successive automotive generation. there are some recent exceptions...the GT4, M2, gt350, etc.
