I wasn't comparing it a Tesla as I've never driven a Tesla but I have driven plenty of cars over the years with driver aids through various jobs I've held.
My point wasn't about comparing the two cars it was about driving experiences.
You'll love the 911 though. Drove a 911 Turbo a few years back at a trackday event and when you put your foot down it's like been drop kicked by king kong. Smiles for days.
Ah I wasn't on about comparing the Nova to a Tesla, it's not a fair fight anyway, Tesla's are a different price bracket.
I was comparing it more to any other new car, priced similar to how the Nova SRi was, relative to other choices, and the market it's aimed at. Something like the Hyundai i20 N, very cheap (for a new car) and great performance, but will have a thousand things the Nova never had and anyone would prefer to drive that around a track if you take the nostalgia away. Like I say though, for its time, and its price, the SRi was great at who it appealed to.
Haha, don't think I can stretch to a Turbo just yet, and by the time I could they won't be making them any more, not like they used to, or do now. Hopefully I get to drive one though, at some point, they look unreal.
They (all performance cars) will all be hybrids soon (the 2023 Turbo S is going to be a hybrid), to meet emissions or their market will drop 10 fold. I think the 2023 Turbo S is going to be a "standard" 911 engine, but with an added electric motor, rather than upping the engine power. They need the engine down for emissions. They will probably all end up 2ltr, with varying electric motors bolted on. I had been keeping a close eye on it, but lost track recently.
A GTX is my best hope, but would need prices to come down a bit to be able to justify that, but the used car price crash has started, so who knows. I would want to see a big crash though, so I know I'm not going to be the one taking a big hit. Probably a 992 Carrera S would be most likely, and I can't imagine I would be disappointed! I just like how it's a proper sports car, yet I can still get my dogs in the back, or some other bits and bobs. Don't have a need for rear seats for humans, so it looks far away the best choice.
