I will say we can agree to disagree and leave it be at that. You seem to be getting a little uncomfortable with maintain a like wise mature conversation. So, it don't matter anymore what your opposition is no more than mine matters. I'm still buying the car, and I'm still going to mod it above it's factory performance.

And LOL...thinking that I hate my cars because I modded them....how stupid does that sound.
I'll admit my sentence was a bit of a run-on, but please make more of an effort...

I, and most of the potential buyers of this car, don't want to have to mod it as soon as we buy it.

I don't want to have to spend $10k on a new car to not hate it when I drive it. Even though I too plan to mod it in the future.

Do you get what I am saying? As in, I don't want a car to suck so bad off the showroom floor that I feel compelled to spend a ton of money so I don't hate driving it.

More clear?

As for rolling performance into payments. You are the one that somehow believes that not having a factory LSD and not having a properly tuned suspension is more performance oriented. Because 'real' enthusiasts will just put their own in. How you got that far brainwashed by Scion's 'blank canvas' marketing is beyond me.

What's your ultimate 'performance' options list? No engine, but it comes with a TIG welder, and some DOM tubing? I guess I'm not a real enthusiast like you are. How about this, Dragonitti? Toyota sells you a bunch of steel tubing (with Scion stickers on it) and some Locost plans for your next car?

The funny thing is that the guys defending Scion before you jumped in were basically saying that you and other performance oriented Scion lovers are the absolute minority when it comes to the brand. And that performance is irrelevant to their marketing.

It's funny enough that I can imagine hearing Oneday laughing hysterically at me as I continue to bang my head against this wall...
