With that being said, it is also note worthy that just because it is popular to make the S-chassis vehicles a performance minded machine, they are still very good looking, and for young enthusiasts who care more about the appearance of the car and can't afford a more "acceptable" show car platform, there is no reason not to do it. Ok, so he/she/they/I might be "bastardizing" the car for not swapping/turboing it, but fuck, why should it matter. Not all 240 owners are going to drift/track/race their car, bitch and moan about it all you want, but it just doesn't work like that.

I see your point....
I'm actually paper building two cars at the moment. One strictly performance car, and the other with some go to it, but other stuff, like nice rims and suede interior and the like. I think in the coming years, we're gonna see the gap get bigger and bigger. You're gonna end up with the performance only guys and then the "nice ride" guys. I see the gap getting rather developed before it starts to mesh again...
