Go the 99t!

Having owned 3 99's, (including a turbo) and a classic 900i, and regulalry driven 900 turbos, I think I would have to agree that nothing quite beats the feeling of sheer power of a 99t on boost.
Even the WRX does not come close (sure it might be heaps quicker & faster, but it a WRX on boost does not give you that shove in the back sensation of a 99t :o)
Mind you the 900t's are a bit quicker, more relaiable and more tractable, but they just don't feel the same...
Mind you my fav car was my (late :o( 1972 99 two door sedan.
Personally I think it is the direct handling of the 99 and lack of power steering that make them so fun to drive. The 900s loose some of this directness (but make it up in comfort)...
