I guess I had a mid-life crsis too , at 40 I sold a very fast D-sports Racer and got my 1200 back!!! They are just an absolute scream of a car to drive and they run forever. Last summer right after I got the car back a rally buddy drove my 1200 at an Autocross , he has a 280 hp Subaru Rally car but thougt the 1200 was awasome. When I went to SCCA drivers school we gave rides in the cars to all the corner workers and I even left my car on grid and told the workers anyone who wanted to could take it for a spin.....several of the workers took me up on it and raved about what a great handling car it was.
