Default best and brightest streetable trackcar

so how is everyone's love affair with the best and brightest--prettiest--streetable track car? is anyone's affections, over time, waning, or waxing, and why? like is one lusting after pushrod big torque (cure: turbocharger), or european with middling revs? personally i'm edging closer to the turbo route, for which i probably deserve to be criticized for messing with the pure sportscar that the S is.

LOL... You said "pushrod". Don't cavemen hunt with those?

The S plus turbo = Still a true sports car.

thank you.....i think boost spikes happen with a poor wastegate and BOV, and yup they might cost you the line and go drifting if briefly instead.
