Out of the 40 there are, how many will actually be driven and used to enjoy it? How many many will sit is some uber yuppies garage to brag to his friends about and to make their ego bigger.
Anything that has the tech that it does, should be utilized and enjoyed, not be a piece of art.

That technology will eventually filter down just as Formula 1 tech does. Things Lockheed developed for the Air Force made it to commercial aviation. That's what I was trying to say. Thanks for clearing up the analogy. As for how many get used, who cares? If I had the money to buy one it would be MY CHOICE what I do with it.
