I understand what you all are saying.

But again manufactures have to build cars that fit the common folk. They spend crap tons of money just to make cars refined. They add all those engine covers, insulate the manifolds, add silancers to the intakes and all that BS. We'll never see the days of manufactures comming out with cars that shake the fenders off of cars, when you turn the key it make men, women and children pee in their pants.:(
