and yet those old 150-200hp cars were likely WAY more visceral, engaging, entertaining, and enjoyable to drive. From a time where driving a car actually meant driving a car and not pressing a bunch of buttons on a computer with 4 wheels. Driving actually took some skill...and some mastery. No 'aids' for everything. No sensors for everything. Basic brakes, basic traction, simple steering, simple engines. No silly computer button suspension.
Going 90mph in one of those cars would be FAR more enjoyable in a current car.
