If I'm paying $110k for 640 HP, it damn well better look pretty.

^you're paying for a very well engineered 640hp race car, not just some car that makes 640, but will break down after a few laps around the track. i see you're point somewhat though.

Looks are subjective but there really aren't a whole lotta folks that don't get a woody over it. No matter to me though, I just wanna track the shit out of it.

It's rwd and an actual sports car, therefor, no you can't have all that with what you've listed. This is not about "I can building something as good for less", it's about the make. Is honda making something this good ? NO.
