I'm getting there!
Lots of us despise anything with electronics, computers and such. there are some really nice new vehicles out there but none are made like they used to be. it's called planned obsolescence. most are now made to last just slightly longer than the warranty or like most here will last until you finish paying the note on it.
for the cost of a new decent vehicle you can pick up an older fully mechanical (diesel or gasser that's carbureted) spend some funds on having the engine and trans gone through, suspension repaired from wear and tear and have you a vehicle that will last well past 90% of the life of the newer ones. the only thing you would have to worry about is if your local state gobment tries to put them off the road due to emissions.
iirc NY is a state that is very strict on that side of things, but so long as it's not a coal roller or a supped up race car and kept in it's stock original form it should pass just fine under classic or antique registration. Don't quote me on that though, I've heard horror stories on this subject.
Here in Texas, they don't care so long as you don't smoke out the streets or make it obvious your rolling coal or running nitrous on public streets!

Critic of the Soviets
“Guevara became disillusioned with the Soviet Union, attacking Moscow in every international forum. After Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev removed nuclear missiles from Cuba during the 1962 Missile Crisis, Guevara questioned Moscow's commitment to international socialism. He was also critical of Soviet insistence that Cuba continue to specialize in sugar. "The socialist countries are, in a way, accomplices of imperialist exploitation," he told a gathering of Third World revolutionaries in Algiers.“

There is no point in looking for a black cat in a black room, especially if there is no cat there.
It is just a place for the atmosphere, they did not sing the song 𝑩𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒂 𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒐 there, they drank beer, sang karaoke, watch football matches.
Now this format has become obsolete.

Presuming this is not an EPA troll, take a look at the VW 2.0 TDI platform. It will not throw you back in the seat much, but it is durable (once correcting the intercooler), cornering is fun, rowing the gears is enjoyable, it gets good fuel economy, and can easily cruise at 90mph (where this is legal, of course).

Not the best driver but want to move up in size and power…
First well done for admitting not a great driver.
There are tons of racetracks around the country where you can get very advanced driving lessons. Go there and do that. Well worth the money. I’ve seen countless people wreck nice rides because they don’t have the skills. Like putting a huge gun in the hand of a kid- not only can they hurt themselves or others, more often than not they don’t enjoy the experience and abandon the idea.
Hang around tracks of all kinds tomsee what is more fun for you.
Drag racing vs track racing is completely different. Then off road options are another world. Bikes are completely different than cars/trucks and take completely different skills but risk of injury/death is higher.
Play around with different types before spending any descent money on one. Many times people invest huge money into one only to find out later they made a mistake.
