In a previous op-ed, I bemoaned how draconian regulations are suffocating fun cars in Europe. In just a few years, we’ve had to say goodbye to the Subaru BRZ, Toyota GR86, Honda Civic Type R, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, and the Miata’s 2.0-liter engine. Seeing the glass half full, there are still some mainstream performance cars left, though they’re mostly from the Volkswagen Group.
