I haven’t bought a new vehicle since 1988 so have sort of gotten out of the auto information universe. Maybe two years ago, I got a free subscription to several auto magazines including Car & Driver and Motor Trend.
Reading the specs I could not believe how much horsepower they are now getting out of small engines. Just about all of them art turbocharged or supercharged.
If I could afford any car I wanted it would not be a Ferrari no matter how much fun they are to drive.
I would want both performance plus reliability. Probably would get a high end Mercedes or Porsche.
The Ferrari is the best of the Guinea Go-carts.
Best handling, best feel, best overall drive. I have driven quite a few of them, Lambo, Maserati, Pantera.
For me, a car is just a car, a means from A to B. Toyota fills that bill the best.
