I agree that people should be more wise about their purchases.There are times when more is better,but its about getting the knowlege to chose wisely.People sometimes see stars on tv and want the same things they have.People should think about the future when they are making a new purchase.Do you really need $ 300 lotion?, or is it more important to keep your electricity on.Have fun,but buy safe.

From age 16-25, most men want the fastest car with the loudest stereo. It's genetic I'm tellin' ya'.
Some where around 25 years of age most men learn that tickets and having to repair the occassional body damage sucks. Those same men get married which then injects the "No more of that sheet" female influence.
After years of minivans these same men want to regain their youth and what better way to do it than buying a super fast car or in some cases, a Harley.
As long as there is testosterone, there will remain a huge market for super fast vehicles.
Sensibility, schmenisibility.

you have to consider that sometimes speed is a 'secondary byproduct'
a lot of people post 25 buy the car for style/comfort/saftey measures too,
speed also included usually comes with the more executive car which also has the expensive stereo/300 horse power etc etc the only consolation i guess is with a more performance made car is .it has the high quality suspension /braking system etc etc
, i live in britain , and pretty much any car will do 90 quite easily and is quite scary when u see a clapped out rust box bombing down the road with probably a disfunctional braking/suspension system,
so i guess if asked if i would spend good money on a a high performance vehicle, then yes i would if it had the other features like i mentioned above,but seeing as iam habitually pennyless i can only dream

i think instead of buying a new car that the company says is fast, just to go out and buy the parts yourself. That way you know if the car is fast or not.
