tti, I can see one of your points about age being a factor in what we think is cool (I'm 37, btw).

If you want a very quiet sleeper that gives no hint of its potential, I can see a sidewinder or a turbo being the route of choice. But cost being cheaper? I don't see that? It seems to me total cost is a wash... and in most of the cars I have to work with, the turbo route comes up as more expensive. But I could be smoking crack
