for example, ride height. both for looks and handling, low to the ground is good. but can they make it too low? if i buy this car and i start scraping the bottom every time i get gas or go up a driveway imma be pissed...
another one that was already discussed is the spare tire. i'd rather lug the extra weight of a full size spare than be stranded on the side of the road...
and then there are the extremists asking for no AC, no power windows, etc.
so can this car become too sporty for its own good? so much so that it becomes annoying for everyday life?

Low COG doesn't mean that they have to drop it in the weeds.
It just means as much weight as possible is as low as they can make it. It's still going to be a stock ride height car, no lower than a tC or XRunner.
The engineers aren't stupid they know people would be pissed.
