Slow Car Movement - A Pure Driving Experience

From today's New York Times:

In contrast to exotics that pamper, the Spyker is all about the drive and the driver. And that's exactly how Matthew Robinson - owner of Spyker No. 138 - likes it.

"I began to realize that less is more," said Mr. Robinson, a transplanted Englishman who is chief technology officer for American Express. "I was drawn to the pure driving experience."

This is should be a prime directive of The Slow Car Movement. With it's purchase by Spyker, I would love to see some of these values returned to my favorite tarnished brand, Saab.
