If your system were a car!

Let's have fun here! If your system were are car what kind would it be and why? I'm still trying to figure out what mine is but still haven't nailed it yet.

Maybe a responsive roadster that allows you to move quickly, feel the road, corner tight but enjoy the ride. It wouldn't be anything newer but maybe a decade or two older. I haven't though of the make, model and year but I'm working on it.

The  reason is that my system can tell me what is happening with my recordings but not at the expensive of discomforting my ear. It is not a big system but it is accurate and with the top down feels great on a nice day. It is a performer but not bleeding edge tech. Not too hot, not too cold but just enough to keep you on edge and engaged.

Lightly modded Golf R 337 HP & 325 lb-ft. Germans really know how to build small fuel efficient engines that are a thrill to drive. The BMW engine in the highest powered Mini JCW is impressive too when modded (great low end torque from a twin scroll turbo). The Golf R turbo kicks in later than the BMW turbo but when it does it more than makes up for any delay and the AWD is superb for traction - overall much faster than the Mini JCW even though the car is quite a bit heavier (4 door AWD vs 2 door FWD).

Between Subaru WRX STI, Ford Focus RS, Honda Civic R, Mini JCW and Golf R there are lots of great hot hatches to choose from. I prefer the Golf R for the stealth value although I did not de-badge it. Most people have no idea what it is which is cool with me.
