Both my wife and I drive the then Turbo and now GT2 to work in bumper to bumper LA traffic.

These cars have so much torque that if I just pay some attention driving in traffic, you can pretty much leave the car idling in 2nd and only push the clutch in once in a while.

And really, why would I want to drive a "sports car" that any old granny can get in and floor it?
