The only way to have hardcore performance parts built for a car that has none is to have a nutcase like me
and I reference JGTC because most of the cars are production, and not purpose built chassis like DTM, which is getting rather bleh these days.
See, I guess that's where we differ.
I like a practical sports coupe, with a nice subdued Euro exhaust note, that handles well but can still be driven anywhere it needs to go. I don't do *****-out driving on the street -- too much can happen. I also don't enjoy pissing people off; instead, I do my best to be approachable and cordial when the questions come pouring in about my classy coupe. I'd rather hear "what kind of car is that? It's gorgeous!" than, "what kind of maniac could take the punishment from that ride?" or, "what maniac is behind the wheel?"
I know that's why they make vanilla and chocolate, but we are kinda doing a design study for what would be most palatable for the majority of the Crossfire owners out there.
We're not cool enough to do "*****-out driving" that pisses everyone off. If we were, we'd probably need a full-blown carbon race diffuser to keep us glued.
To each his own. Stay safe. Crossfires make wonderful cars; terrible caskets.
