As automotive writers, we sometimes get to drive cars we’d previously only dreamed of. Still, we’re bound by law (and in many cases by wives/girlfriends) to follow the rules of the road. That means, even if we have a Nissan GT-R or some super example of a Porsche 911 at our disposal, we can’t drive them they way we do in our automotive fantasies. The elation of getting behind the wheel of a favorite car, thanks to that fun governor called “reality,” is often tinged with a bit of sadness when we think about the driving experience that could have been.
