come up with some kind of option package, i.e. sports package and call it a "track package"

oil cooler
stiffer sways
better struts
better brake pads..etc...

then atleast if people want to spend an extra few thousand they have theirselves a track ready out the door z
Well that would be too expensive, according to Robert. And "this is not an [sic] time for any manufacturer to be spending any more money on anything than it has to." Kinda makes you wonder why they made nav an option, doesn't it? They should have just either not offered it or made everyone pony up the extra $3k for it.

I would have too. But in all fairness, Robert does have a point. The more different options and packages you have, the more expensive overall production is. That's part of the reason Nissan streamlined all the different trim lines they had for the 350 down to just two for the 370. Standardization means increased efficiency. (Didn't they have like four or five different trim lines for the 350 at one point?)
