Once one discovers cars can turn left and right, driving is more enjoyable.

And the Demon can do that quite well. It can hold 1g on the lateral. But that's not what this car was built for.

Personally, I like the feel of insane acceleration better than carving up twisties, even on my sport bike. So this car is built for people like me... if it wasn't so expensive.

There’s also the philosophical issue of “true performance” versus “perceived performance”, an example would be the thrill of the wooden roller coaster versus that of the modern all-steel roller coaster.

I prefer wooden roller coasters, carbs, the rumble, the smell of fuel and oil, the King James Bible, and the feeling of sheer terror.
