. . . that there's almost nothing between me and the driving


NO power-assist = when I turn the wheel, I can feel the road . . . not some Engineer's algorithm of one


NO Safety Shyte = push pedal = feel the tires + brakes + road interacting. Get it wrong = get hurt + go broke


NO ding-a-ling-a-lation when I open the door with the key on . . . or my seat-belt un-done . . . or any other effing thing. If I wanna open the door to hear the engine run, then I don't wanna hear a din-a-ling-a-lator while I'm doing it

Besides --- if I ever do ball this thing up? . . . . the flames will prolly take care of anything that the seat-belts saved, anyway . . .
. . . provided, of course, that the 4 screws holding the seat to a forward-pivoting wood frame haven't let go and squoze my face + torso out through the windshield



I mean seriously --- FEAR is an excellent safety device, IMO


Furthermore . . .

I don't care that it's slow
I don't care that it's hard to drive
I don't care that it's noisy . . .
. . . or that it smells . . .
. . . or that the seats are uncomfortable . . .

. . . or that nobody wants to drive it but me


I want a car that involves me --- totally . . .

. . . that requires me to actively/knowledgeably/passionately take part in what's going on . . .



. . . not something that does everything for me



+ F&ck comfort

Seriously
