well...thats the first time i've hear this.

Isn't a sportscar about overkill? I mean if you really want to get down to it, we could all be driving honda Fits from point A to point B. A stock 993 suspension is probably overkill...yet just about everybody upgrades.

400bhp in a 3000lb car is not overkill in the least bit. Its fast, but its not **** yourself, holy god, I'm going to get arrested fast in the least. I regularly use 100% of the throttle and rpms available.

Btw, if you truly feel this way, why not earn yourself $30k and get a narrowbody c2, I mean the widebody is pretty overkill.
