“I mean, the only criteria I need is for him to just make me happy and smile. That’s pretty much it. It doesn’t have to be a certain engine or drive a certain way. It’s more for me to adapt to any driving style for any car.

“Because in reality, a lot of old cars don’t drive like that. You know, as soon as you want to push them and go a little bit faster, they usually don’t go that well. But I think it’s just a feeling and this characteristic is unique to each car. But sound is very important to me.

“I don’t know if it will be forever, but I’m not a fan of so many hybrid cars. I’m not a fan of EVs at all, so this has to be an authentic experience for me. Usually, a naturally aspirated engine is always a win for me, but turbocharging and all that can be included.

“I think that’s what adds authenticity to any car you drive. But for me it’s sound. It’s such a one-to-one feeling from the way you drive. I think modern cars are almost too perfect and too beautiful that it almost doesn’t matter what it looks like, because they all drive the same at the end of the day and then it gets a little boring, I think, so these old classics are more fun.”
