Sorry - it's my first car with a turbo, and the chill in the air makes this car feel so much more responsive!

Yep love when the temp is below 40 degrees. Don't forget low humidity and high pressure is also what you want .

It's been dipping into the low 70's here all week. My girlfriend was riding with me on Monday and I did a 2nd-3rd gear pull while getting on to the highway and she said "this thing feels really fast right now". Air temps make a huge difference.

That's the difference between a GF and wife - my wife would just freak and yell at me to slow down...[down]

lol I can't wait. It's been over 100 every day for the past few months here in Phoenix. "Cooling off" is high 90s (usually with thunderstorms, lol)....
Even that said, I can notice a difference in performance between 115 and 105 degrees...

I always felt my car ran better on my drive to work in the morning. It's been about 50 in the morning then about 80 when i get off. Huge difference, I never made the connection [:o]. I like to hear my carbonio attack the air in the morning[evilsmile].

You’re complaining about having hot weather, lmao. Come up to Toronto, you'll love it here.
I agree with the op, cooler weather makes our cars run like a champ.
