Lou, I am sure it will be a fine and powerful car. I usually wait a few years before I buy a model, so I would probably be looking at something in 2024 or 2025. At which time I will be getting mighty close to 80 years old. If I am lucky. So despite the Mickey Thompson quote in my signature, 650 HP is probably enough for me for now and the foreseeable future. Of course I can try to prolong that foreseeable future as long as possible by reducing my life-long consumption of the "Four Bs"--Beef, Bacon, Butter and Booze. So who knows what the future will bring? But maybe I will decide that a possibly shorter foreseeable future is more fun with the Four Bs and more HP!--Bob
