That list is pointless for the given topic
I misunderstood the point you were trying to make. I thought when you said "drag" you meant drag racing[performance], that is why I said number nine.

As for the poll, it simply represents what the average car buyer sees as the important factors. The fact of the matter is, the average car buyer is unlikely to opt for the SS or the GT in any case. That's why the base models of both cars far outsell the higher performance versions. So let's not kid ourselves and try to act like we are both talking about those buyers. We're talking about the performence enthusiasts who will be looking to get behind the wheel of a SS or a GT and would not even consider the base model of either car.
