And you know what about my personal and particular interests, demands, uses, criteria for choosing a car?

Let's separate a real basic engineering/physics perspective of the most important thing in automobile performance from the plethora of other tangibles/intangibles. Probably as much for someone fairly technical like myself, cars choices are still largely about emotion. For me even something like acoustics is pretty darn important.

Just for your curiosity though, I enjoy carving up the canyons, mountains and get to formal track days as many times a year as I can. If I chose to blow a ton more $$ on cars I'd love to have a late 60's Camaro SS with a supercharged big block and close to 1000 hp...
