They all have ABS.

If you use the sport setting on the transmission that should help improve acceleration. There also some easy modifications that can be done.

Typically the N/A cars are more trouble free as they are less likely to be "beaten on" than the turbo cars. I'm friends with a long time Volvo mechanic and he advised me that the turbos are more trouble.

It's all in what you are used to. My N/A feel like a rocketship after driving my 240 for years...:)
