Tweek interior dimensions to accommodate larger (horitonally/vertically) drivers
Loose the staggered wheels,
Put some sort of donut spare in car
Make the standard/limited powerplant @ 250 HP and you've got a nice car niche car that will have a place with young and older drivers.
Target $30K(ish)...that seems to be the sweet spot
All the XF needs is the SLK350 drivetrain, and some knee room. then it's perfect, oh yeah and make it tuner friendly.
