Agreed. We are undeniably in the golden age of sports cars. Cars that can be purchased new without too much pain by "middle-class", or used, likewise, by the "working-class", have the comfort of luxury vehicles of 20 years ago, and the performance of race cars from 10 years ago. Camaro, Mustang, Corvette, Porsche, entry-level Ferraris, Nissan GT-Rs, you name it.
To even come close to reaching the safely-reachable (*) performance differentiation points on these cars, you MUST get off the public roads and take it to a track. And how many people do that? Maybe - what - 0.5% of all sports car buyers?
(*: Example: Telsa Model S Plaid can go 0-60 in about 2 to 2.2 seconds flat, quarter-mile in low 9 second range. Awesome? Yes! Do I want that happening on a public street around civilians? NO!!!)
