You're conflating sports car with race car.
I think you misunderstand what I was getting at...

The tidbit about track use/spirited driving was in reference to the weak points on our cars. If you got a more "pure" sports car, the weak points aren't so glaring. A 350Z track edition comes to mind.

There will always be a trade-off for what we get with our cars, the FRS/BRZ is a good starting point for someone wanting to get a sports car without breaking the bank, or someone else looking for a car that can get a lot more performance and bang for the buck with a few minor mods (i.e. most of us, myself included).

That's all I was getting at.
