High-end cars are getting more powerful, to the point of grip problems, but what this really highlights is how pointless such cars are in day-to-day life, especially away from the Autobahn and Nurburgring. Rather than something with 700lb-ft of torque and a slew of electronics to keep you alive, get something sensible.
