Its the sort of car you see forsale six months later when tickets and insurance get too painful, or you just want something more fun and/or comfortable.
I still like to see the high hp engineered cars but I tend to agree. They are pretty much useless on the street when 3/4 of their speed is illegal. Unless they guy is an experienced track guy they are also useless on the track. It's very hard to learn proper driving in something like that and is extremely frustrating when guys in Miata's are passing you. They are pretty much for rich people to take out a couple time a month and show off.... man I wish I was rich
