While I understand your point, its a bit silly dont you think. This mindset makes one wonder why BMW even offers such a ridiculous car. Curious as to your views on sportscars and the ability to purchase AND drive them on our shitty public roads??? Do you shake your head in disgust when you see an obvious idiot driving one???? Just curious.
