Certainly, what we expect of sports cars today has changed.

I was looking at my buddy's new zo6. Amazing power (505HP), docile at idle, rides comfortably, has auto climate control. etc. You get the picture.

So, to my mind there is no older equiv. to this type of car. We have simply created a new breed of "performance car."

On balance, to me, this is a GOOD thing.

But hey, I really like the Miata and the z3 from BMW, which really are in the older sports car mode.

It IS a great time to be alive, no! So many choices, so little time.
