I got to thinking about this after reading about the fact Oscar was considering trading the SPI in for a ST.
I'd do the same, initially... but would I? Really?
I'm slow, but the car looks good and handles fairly well. I'm happy, but every time a seriously sweet car goes by, I just shiver. Case in point - a G35 coupe rips past me tonight on Bay St. and I just instinctively goose the gas. Not much noise from a stock Toyota 1.8L, but it's proof of the fact that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts like Darth Sidious.
So... are you happy being a slow Focus? Are you one of thoe mutated FastFocuses? Are you happy being something else entirely? Does stock float your boat?
