I understand that some people want to get a certain "look" for their ride. But if the "look" you want renders the car slow and kills its handling, why in the heck would someone spend extra money for a fast car that handles well...only to spend even more money on making it slow and sloppy.

It's like buying an expensive luxury car and then spending money to gut the interior, remove the AC, and drive it while sitting on a bail of hay.
