Default New school or old school?

Assuming you want a 4 cylinder sports coupe, and purchase cost aside, which car do you think you'd rather have? Power, weight, even the profiles are similar...

944S, just because I prefer the look of old school cars. I don't like where modern cars are heading in terms of looks I also like that older cars let YOU drive the car with little or no electronic aids instead of holding your hand while you drive it. I think that car companies are building cars more to adapt to shitty drivers rather than to build raw sports cars that require the driver to adapt to it. Just my opinion haha and that's my rant for the day

Another vote for the 944. I've seen three of them on the road so far this spring. All in nice condition.

I'd take the FR-S or BRZ, just because I was never a big fan of the 944. Now, if we were comparing an FR-S/BRZ to a mint condition S13 240SX coupe? No brainer, I'd take the 240.
