Donal, you just go on and on proving that you're into bloated blvd.
cruisers and that's fine with me! It must be really killing you that I
will own such a car purely as a toy.
Noisy? BWAHAHAHAAAHHAHAHAHAHA!


Well, there is a huge difference between the
high pitched whine of a 4 cylinder Evo, and the
low pitched growl of a 12 cylinder of a DB9.



Yup...the 4 is more fun and uses less gas!



Real power actually sounds nice. Cheap power
sounds like a modern Japanese motorbike.



Yeah, too bad those Japanese bikes utterly rule the world of
performance biking, but they're not exactly cheap either. Donal,
everything you've said smacks of the 80's. That was when big engines
and Harley/Ducati seemed wonderful. Then the Nissan 300 Twin Turbo
came out....and everything changed in a day. Then Honda built the NSX
and got it to out-handle everything and do it with skinny tires. Hey,
Donal....the 80's are calling!
