[QUOTE="SecondhandSnake, post: 16470399, member: 116684"] They really are such insane cars, and what struck me most is they do not feel or act at all like you would imagine. They're just big, obscenely overpowered go-karts. They're drastically more nimble and responsive than you'd think at first glance. And the V-10 feels so much more powerful than you'd expect on paper. Then their interior is just the same low budget Chrysler plastic of the day. They're just all about business, purely purpose built. A real spiritual successor to the Shelby Cobra. Can't wait for this 'rona bullshit to be over so I can go back to hunting for one. It amazed me after spending some time on the high volume production side of things just how crude and labor intensive most cars we think of as "high end" are. They fall in this weird gap of moderate volume where they don't have the advantage of volume and mechanized assembly like the big companies, but have too high volume to spend the attention to them that one off shops do. And yet they command the big money, when even your average economy car is going to have more precision and quality put into it. [/QUOTE]
