Good luck with the sub 3sec times. Maybe my buddy who has a GTR33 with 900hp will turn sub 3sec 0-60 assuming he gets traction. I also knew someone who had a 500hp+ EVO and he turned in the high 11's. Honestly wasn't much faster than my F150 Lightning.
I have to agree that I prefer the twins over the inline 4's. I've owned both and the twins have the sound and vibration that heightens the experience. Although the I4s were more reliable over the long term I picked the Ducatis because I like to ride and I really don't care what anyone else does. I'm old enough to know it doesn't really matter.
