I agree to the first part but not the second.

There is no replacement for displacement.

This is why people go with bigger displacement to make bigger power. Look at some people that turbo their cars and also modified their engines to increase the displacement.

Look at some people with large displacement engines that also add forced induction.

Lol, just being a smartass.

Anyway, my argument is that I wouldn't write-off a new sports car
just because it uses a turbo-4. I imagine a BRZ-type car with FI and better appointments/quality would be a pleasure to own. :cheers:

. The GTR is the fastest production car in the world. The GTR FOR NOW, in current events. Kills the Displacement argument.
When someone else can build a faster production car. Your point will be validated once again.
