Ahhh, the semantic and philosophical ramifications makes me speechless. Which is irrelevant given that I am posting in a forum.

The turboing that men do to them them,
The good is oft interred with their $700 dampers"

Apologies to Shakespeare.

Only because there are more of them (FR-S). This reminds me of the comment in another thread that the FR-S was the third most ticketed car. OK, but only if we mean percentage rather than actual numbers. So there are about 40,000 FR-S's on the road. How many millions of Mustangs are there? Don't you think that the sheer number of tickets issued to Mustangs has to simply dwarf that for the twins?
