Is it just me or are cars under 500whp just flat-out BORING to drive daily?

charles you have 3 options....

1. another evo
2. another supra
3. forced induction LSx car(c5, c6, f-body)

I assure you a 500 crank HP Miata would be a LOT LOT more intense than a 700awhp Evo.

he wants fast not intense. a 500 hp miata would roast the tires till 140mph while a 500 hp evo pulls past it.

I'd suggest finding less on ramps and more turns. I'd say the majority of the most addicting cars to drive every day, even with mods are well under 500whp and would never get old

just a question but have you took a bike down the strip that runs 8's or better? i'm not trying to start an argument but i've done curves and track days and i love them, but i don't get the feeling there that i get on my orange bike. Plus pushing a bike really hard in the mountains is asking to loose the bike. i've been really really close to losing a couple just trying to push them to the limit, gravel, cars, ect. and have seen friends down many times. theres just somthing about straight line that does it for me. To me its more skill with a little bit less focus. but i do miss the focus it takes for the curves and how everything else seems to leave your mind. also i'm not one of the fools to brag about how i can win a race. I race against my previous time slip not whats beside me.

I haven't taken a bike to a strip to race, and never have driven a street bike on the street. I only have done road courses and don't think that feeling of turns can be beat. I know plenty of adrenaline junkies who have done drag, road race, sky diving, base jumping, and all other sorts of stuff but never get the satisfaction they do when they race on a road course. I don't commend racing a bike through mountains or anything, just thought. I just prefer twists and turns. Preference I guess.

Just man up and get a LFA

Don't drive your "fun" car everyday. Thats why you're boared. If you DD to work in a commuter car (some un-inspiring truck/jeep/sedan) and then leave your fun car for the weekend you will appreciate it more (plus you keep the wear and tear everyday miles off).
