I like your thinking Peter. A slant is a must have if money grew on trees. I am drawn to Pcars in there minimal state. The early lightweight cars with high revving engines, in my mind, is the Porsche philosophy. I just don't get as excited about fender flares, turbos, and wings and the extra weight they represent. Don't get me wrong though, I love a dose of 930 elixer anytime I can get it. However if I am going all out, the wretched excess of the slant-nose is a lucsious indulgence. I might even get one of those woodgrain kits to compliment the A/D/S sound system. No Gotti wheels though.

So true. My '73S could gobble up Boxters and M3s at the track like candy. Getting "pointed up" by many a "larger" car was quite gratifying. Stock Konis and 205s on stock rims was barely enough for the flexibility of the motor on the backside twisties, and it had some stink on the front stretch too. Could auger deep into the curves as well. All the time just listening to it sing out that note thru the throttles. It doesn't get any better...and for turbos and wings, well I'll just say my car had more capabilities than I. And an even more wicked street fighter.
