Though for the converted $14k (none of your crappy Monopoly money there ) you could get one of these:
Factory Five Coupe.

That particular model of GT V6 is FWD
1.) Lancia Delta is turbocharged 4WD Fiat, with same reliability.
2.) early turbocharged car.. lag city.
3.) funny though, I agree with you on this. Alfa + V6 + RWD = win.
2.) early turbocharged car.. lag city.
So? Lag will only make a difference if you are planning to race the car. For everyday driving, I actually think it's kinda cool to feel the turbo building up
Drivers who cant adapt their driving technique to counter turbo lag should not be allowed to drive.
Funny thing is, the lag is more problematic on the streets than the track.
Older Saab's are notorious for causing trouble for unaccustomed drivers to left turns in high traffic area's. They expect there to be power, hit the throttle and get nothing and just as they are about to get creamed the boot kicks in and they spin the wheels... and then get creamed by on coming cars.
Lag =/= cool in anyway.
At what RPM do they hit boost ?
NO idea, this is just what I've heard from people that owned 'em and read in reviews of them for years. Many of the reviews IIRC said near 3k
A classic-shape 900 Aero is 100 million billion times cooler than a WRX, though.
Thats not that bad. I read in a magazine before that a WRX is pretty slow under 3000rpm and that was before the turbo kicked in.
