I can't say that I agree in the least with any of those statements...

people purchase these cars for attention and to some level, the inherent danger in driving them. They want them to feel as raw and visceral as possible. They will continue to do so whether or not they have the driving skills to pilot such a vehicle or not and I do not think it is up to the government or the car companies to decide if you have the "right stuff" to own an exotic of this level. Truth be told, lots of kit cars built by amateurs are probably just as dangerous and even more poorly engineered and I do not believe anyone is complaining about them. The car could probably use some form of traction/stability control but then it would be another computer guided missle like the GTR. The fact is the CGT is one of a dying breed of true super cars. How many times have people trash talked the F-40 because it is so primal...they do not because that is what makes it so unique.
