That was a great article… and part of what refocused my enthusiasm. One of my all time favorite cars was a 2014 Ford Fiesta ST. One of the magazines in Europe described those as “like a puppy. But with a turbo.” It was exceedingly engaging. I’d giggle driving it. Not the most G’s, or fastest, or flashiest… but the driving experience was amazing. That R&T article you referenced was much more about the driving experience than 0-60 or lap times. I got to thinking of how neat it would be if you could still buy a Cobra without the “Shelby” premium… original, small block, skinny-tired version where it all began. Cue the Mark II!!!
