You sure sound like a Ferrari owner in Pantera clothing!

If, by that you mean that I look for lighter balanced sportscar steering, instead of feeling as if I am driving an unassisted pickup with a big block, yes. If you mean I desire handling that can begin to measure up to high end sportscars made when my car was new in 1986, yes. Remember guys, DeTomaso did no, and I mean no engineering to accomodate 10" wide front wheels. In fact, DeTomaso's answer to getting the tires properly in the wheel wells was to place a spacer between the 10" wheel and the hub. Never mind the lack of caster. The A Arm suspension components for the GT5 and GT5S are THE SAME as on 71-74 cars.
As to despariging Ferrari ownership. It reminds me of a guy I knew who talked down membership in high end Country Clubs. I wonder why?
