: (snippage) Back to the M-coupe vs. GLH. What if you put the same amount of mods into the M-coupe that you did into the GLH? Take it on the track then!

Using dollars as a baseline for performance (ie, best-bang-for-the-buck) ... Zach, the Coupe cost 4 times what a GLH cost! At that cost, it should NOT need any mods. But ... give me $40+K (cost of the Coupe) to put into a GLH and I can be pretty sure that it could beat the Coupe in all departments.

BTW ... "David", in his post below, makes one helluva point regarding what a FWD can do. The Mini Coopers were (and probably still) are the best of the breed when it comes to putting a FWD on a road course!

More thoughts ... FWIW
