I agree, performance shouldn’t be a metric when designing a performance car. In today’s world, less is more. Instead of making big price increases to make their cars go slightly faster on track, ford should go back to making the car slower and lower the price. This way they can make more sales. Leave the “want to go fast demo” to GM.
