Maybe it's cause of my rolling start off the lights, but my 2017 2.0NA 6MT feel significantly faster then 8sec. Easy to take-out a similar sized Turbo engine by letting it roll a bit at the lights and control wheel spin up to about 15mph, before giving it the beans. Doing the same with a Turbo engine would just fry the front tires (boost is very abrupt), but with NA engine, it's very easy to control the traction off-the-lights by taking advantage of the linear power output and manual transmission.
my 19 sport also felt hella fast with rolling start. Im nervous trying to step into the slowbox 11th gen anvil edition.

Given how well 10th 2.0L NA 6MT puts down power at the racetrack, 11th NA will be better suited for only street use, cause any slower is going to ruin your track day.

All these new wave of performance car for the masses is horse shit. When factoring price, GR86 was only car that would have been an upgrade over my current ride. But that has engine issue and doesn't look like it'll be resolved by manufacturer. 11th Si is now the only solution, but that's a side-step, not an improvement... it all sucks.

I put-in a deposit for a 2023 Elantra N. Hopefully, long term durability is good enough to make it a good buy. Would not have been a solution if Si had the K20C1.
