The tech that I am talking about as useful and a step forward is the energy recovery off the turbo. What a useful thing for road cars to be able to harvest power off the turbine to store for use in a hybrid drive setup, or to spool up the turbo quickly.

I do miss the sound but it was at least interesting to hear all sorts of other noises that have been drowned out by exhaust noise for the last couple of decades. And yes, the cars getting all squirmy through over doing the grip with torque was more interesting to watch than in past years.
