I agree with "driving home in a Crossfire", but I hear that excuse way too many times from fancy car owners to justify a loss. Would you accept that excuse if you just put bus lengths on a BMW 750i that was actually trying?
You know, you buy the car you like and enjoy it. If you're faster than someone else, big freakin' deal. If the next guy smokes you, so what? You get to drive home in the car you like and that you're happy with, the car that turns you on. My "driving home in a Crossfire" was a bit tongue in cheek - this is a Crossfire forum after all.
