Both.
But I like slow car, fast enough to learn new skills at the track. On the street anything above a well prepped Miata is just showing how big your wallet is.

Gotta agree with what tom1200 was saying. Perhaps another way to put it is that a slower car has more planning and patience with mid-corner corrections added to the bag. It's a bit more of a chess game. Faster car is much more decisive. Much more reflexive. Not as much planning time, you have to nail it immediately. Get behind and there isn't as much of a chance to correct mid stream.
Not saying that the examples are absolute, it's a spectrum. Each has its strategy, there is a lot of overlap.
Cars are like women. There are cars that are much more than I can handle. And there are women who are much more than I can handle.
I don't have the skill to nurse the last tenth of a second of potential out of a fast car. Most of us don't. Only 1 or 2% of drivers have that level of skill.
I like challenging myself. I like racing a car that takes me to my limit while I take it to its limit.
Slow car fast.
