It doesn't take a linguistics expert to understand the spirit of the question. People quibbling over the thread title is nothing but shitposting.

Dallara Stradale is still the correct answer though
So you agree it isn’t specific enough?
You’ve basically stated as much yourself.
All the evidence based on outcome of thread would state so as well.

You’re saying, it is specific enough, and then saying it’s just worded poorly, confusingly, and with much of it being left open to interpretation… in other words not specific enough…

Exactly, but you get 8+ pages of non “spirited” responses.
Hence the attempt at getting it back on track by clarifying the two options.
Just to immediately be derailed again by “non linguistic experts” arguing no need to specify further despite derailing it themselves and the thread being derailing on the 1st page do to lack of specificity in OP.

It's like saying dihydrogenmonoxide instead of H2O.

It's not 8 pages though Answers are about half real and have "if's", shitposting is the rest.

I've driven a few "performance" cars in my day. All have been impressive for what they do, but the mass has always left me feeling underwhelmed.

I'm the target market for this car.

We all know OP ment, "if the Supra and the twin were the only two cars that exist, and cost exactly the same, which one would you get?"
