Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?

And your Corvair.

Sumflow, I agree with mid engine concept. In 1976 my best bud had a Fiat X1/9 and we worked it with Abarth suspension, intake, and exhaust upgrades. It still had way less than a hundred horses but that was no comfort to the 'Vette driver chasing us one night who didn't make the last turn before Saratoga on Hwy 9 and plowed sideways into the concrete bridge rails. I drive a pickup truck now but I have a couple motorcycles that will spank your Porsche. Kind of like tubes vs. SS-both good but a matter of preference. Enjoy that McLaren....

Tonywinsc,
Could be a perfect automotive analogy. Fuel injection is mostly right all the time and extremely dependable but the most perfect running motor vehicle I ever had was a carbureted '88 BMW R100GS motorcycle and it absolutely purred. Power on that bike was like a stepped resistor ladder volume control-I could modulate the throttle in what seemed like one RPM increments.
