Are you really saying the car was not designed to be fast? The Subaru BRZ GT300 seems pretty fast as an example especially when a Porsche 911 recently wins a championship in the SuperGT300 class. Does that mean a 911 isn't fast?
Personally it is hard for me to believe you when someone thinks a Ford Probe or something is designed to be fast.

man, if you think the gt300's have ANYTHING in common that you can compare with stock cars...
frame chassis, all cf body. suspension components the bolt up right next to the engine for maximum double a arm length. those horizontal mounted shocks. That super expensive aero, that horizontal radiator...
yeah, a car that probably costs in the millions is fast... but if you consider that a "fixed up 86"...
and yeah, if you go by track times, the twins are definitely not fast. In fact they are just about the slowest sports cars for their price. But that's not why they designed the twins, and that's not why you should buy a twin.
The problem is i think it's styled and marketed like a cheap porsche when it really is more like a miata.
