Another reason I don't like VIP car is because its a compromise. I know for a fact rolling on 18+ wheels with a lower suspension does not make the ride better. You're losing luxury. It's also why I dislike grand touring cars, and cars like the 350z where they have some sort of luxury/sport concept. I think a car should be purpose built. If its for luxury, make it excel at that. Don't compromise it. If its performance, don't compromise. It doesn't neccessairly mean the car is going to be ugly. At the same time, I'm all about put handling and power above looks any day. I know Terry will disagree. I'm sure if we made a graph and had 15 points to allocate between power, handling, looks, his graph would be fairly even, while mine would probably skewed first to handling, and second to power, with a bare minimum in looks. I don't expect everybody to agree with me though. I'm sure alot of people, probably the majority prefer a car thats a jack-of-all-trades.

I actually never said they were gay until you specifically ask me to explain why people think they are gay.

I respect that. I like purpose built cars too... like the elise or grand national. 2 cars that were designed with specific purposes. The soarer is not that....it mixes a bit of luxury with power.

Yes I do...but honestly I think most people on central dont agree with philosophy.
It would be more like
1 point towards handling
0 points on looks
14 points on power
And thats fun and all but its very 1 dimensional.
Honestly if I had to pick between the 3 and was forced to only take one route I would choose handling
