Our cars get 1.2g on a FR set up. Now on a MR setup with our same suspensions do you realize the handling boost we're gonna get???

Nappa leather is VERY expensive
Carbon fiber is very expensive.
That front lift feature while not interrupting track capability will be a high cost feat.

The 458 italia with 578hp gets to 60 in 3.3 sec
The C8 corvette gets to 60 with 495hp at minimum 2.9 seconds...

That proves how much chevy solved for drag transmission tuning and off the line grip. I'm boggled you even made that statement right now!!
To each his own. I would only get a C8 Z06. The problem is cost. I just about beat a Z06 is going to be 120 to 130k. I built my TT Z for way less than that.
