well that's true, but they didn't choose performance over ride quality.
If you read it, the only ride quality that is explicitly mentioned is
highway ride quality, something that is not everyday and not an immediate concern. Thus everyday ride quality must fall into a different category. The only one that fits is the interior comfort, which falls at number 4. Well ahead of performance.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
