Once the scuderia came along, and with it the requisite progress in shift times and response, the stradale sat more and more....it seem a bit sluggish in comparison. Which brings to light the fact that progression and refinement is inevitable and doesn't necessarily dilute the experience, it sometimes enhances it tangibly.

I challenge anyone to drive the GTO and tell me it's doesn't tickle the senses or "is boring"...it checks all the right boxes of sensory engagement and tightens the sphincter as much as you'll let it...simply fantastic.

....and yet I love the return to the brilliance of the GT3RS on a twisting corner filled back road on a Saturday morning, rifling through the gearbox and gooning every corner possible.

Each platform can be as engaging as you want it to be, different, but not necessarily less fun.
