Amen, and I am with you on the driving experience. On a track I am WAY faster if I take advantage of modern technology. On the road I am having WAY more fun if I am not. Besides, you can't safely take advantage of all of that speed/tech on the road.

A car, or motorcycle, that you can push a little while still keeping speed reasonable is a lot of fun. A 911 from the 80's is a perfect example. Same with an old muscle car, 2-valve Ducati Monster, E30/E36 M3, Subaru BRZ, etc.
