That's a big part of it. The gen 3 SHO isn't particularly fast but has much better feel than the SLO. I remember right after I got my 90 SHO a co-worker got a new BMW 325. He sure got lots of oohs and aahs, while I was thinking to myself that my SHO would out-accellerate his car and out-corner it. From all that I read, the BMW still has about the ultimate in "soul".
I get tired of those "zoom-zoom" commercials particularly since Mazda hasn't produced a sports car in about 10 years. (In my book the Miata doesn't even come close.) It sounds like the "6" will be a true sports sedan. A local dealer was advertising on the radio this morning that they had some available.
