It would probably take at least 5-6 years to get that out of Capoeira. Perfecting techniques, developing unpredictability (And sometimes the ability to break the rhythm of your opponent), and gaining those cat-like reflexes take a while to perfect.
I also agree with your statment about styles: I don't believe there is a best style either. I believe the kicks of our good friend JKD sort of mix of both muay thai style kicking (Not from the actual art, but the baseball bat swinging motion), and the more oriental art style kicking (i.e. A TKD roundhouse) just as an example.
