mp4 Like in terms of speed or involvement?

Involvement. They're all fast cars. It's just that I find some to be more visceral than others.

I won't bother getting into a trans debate with anyone. I keep a car until I get bored with it and then I move on.

That's the beauty of having so many choices out there I guess...

That is a great manual, but they stopped making it already. New Huracan and R8 (coming soon) have DCT only now...

Couldnt agree more. Its the MP4 I keep coming back to when thinking about which car is similar to the new one.
