[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16577163, member: 21786"] What the hell is the goal of this argument? To prove that everyone should be driving GT500s because they are close enough in performance and cost less? What about the fact that people have personal preference and there is an artistic element in that certain designs can strike a chord with people where they desire a vehicle solely because they admire the design among all else? Manufacturers design and build cars specifically for this reason and exotics tend to be at the top of the list in regards to examples of pushing artistic boundaries. So when engineering a car, that from an artistic standpoint is beautiful and exotic, that means that it has to have an engine and drivetrain that compliment the overall design, and that usually leads to very expensive components and processes being used in R&D and manufacturing that ultimately jack up the price when it it hits the market. I don't think I need to explain that any further but I would argue the primary drive for customer demand is in the exterior design, and with that performance to match is usually a given at this current time. Basically you can't have one without the other or the car will be a failure on the market. [/QUOTE]
