I remember trying one - I felt I had to as a self-respecting petrol-head. I've never felt anything so quick and I felt pretty competant behind the wheel of it... which bothered me. When I got out at the end, I realised my head was spinning with the heightened level of concentration and the assault my senses had been receiving for the last hour. I knew I couldn't have one!
To me, the Japanese engineer things to be clinically perfect, and relentless. The only way you can appreciate that (in my opinion) is to be relentless in it and push to see what those clinical limits of engineering are. At some point, probably sooner than later, that is going to snap me over the edge of my abilities as the electronic trickery can no longer rescue me. I really admire the Oriental engineering philosophy of taking what other people have done and then perfecting it - they usually succeed!
Just for me, I get excited by something with a bit more character when not being pushed on the limit the whole time, that makes me feel like I'm in a leather armchair with a cigar and a whisky. I don't care if my Maserati isn't technically perfect as I just love being in it!
