Maybe while I was ranting, I failed to make myself clear. I was just talking about what $100K could buy rather than this SPF. I was not advocating cutting an original car to replicate a GS. Just sayin' how modifying an original as I described was is a much better use of the $$ than this GS replica IMO.
And for the record, your car should run and stop much better than originals. 600HP, lighter and bigger brakes. Of course a driver would be needed to extract that performance envelope.
Uh... and I know about men vs. quiche...
