true sports cars dont come with these features. the lotus elise released soon in the us is an example of this. Theyve had to add many more comfort car features otherwise you guys wouldnt buy it. comfort is a compromise in most cases. nowadays you pay more for the manufacturer to return the car back to a race car from a tourer. the porsche gt3 rs is a case in point, as is the honda nsx type r. Imagine someone going into a ferrari garage asking for cruise control, it would be extremely stupid.

it all boils down to what you want in a car. If you want a bit more pep thats fine, then you can keep all the creature comforts. But if you want a car that drives fast, brakes well and handles well then unless you're planning to buy a merc mclaren sl with millions of dollars of RnD then you wouldnt keep these things in your car.

Well Mr. Sports Car Enthusiast... if you consider yourself a TRUE Sports Car enthusiasts, what the hell are you doing with a Toyota? You're comparing apples and oranges my friend. Let's bring it back down a notch to the level of sports cars we've been discussing. I've seen an MR2, Supra, 300Z, RX7, Viper (older models), Corvette, and the NSX all with cruise control. Does that make them FAKE sports cars just because they come equiped with all these extra features? If you feel that these aren't true sports cars, then your GT-FOUR would be considered just as fake as your comments.

EDIT: And stop TRYING to make an issue out of nothing. Now you're bringing up TRUE sports cars into this topic when you don't even drive a TRUE sports car (according to YOUR standards)... which is making this whole thing go off-topic. If someone wants these extra features, that's their peragotive. There really is no sense dragging this on.
