If Ferrari were doing all the things GM is doing with the Vette, we would have the greatest car ever created.

Instead, you can't shift gears yourself in a Ferrari, Porsche has 3 cars that look like minivans,  the Vette allows the driver to actually control the car and keeps winning Le Mans?

Is the world really going to come to an end???

This has to be a nightmare...

Well, that's from 2010, so it's already a five year old platform he's selling.
I have to agree with your other points.  Once you have a road car that has won Le Mans in its homologated format and sports the technology without the "nannies" -- I think all the "driver's" marques should have the necessary "defeat" switches to turn off all the electronics (even ABS, if I really want the fun of flat-spotting tires on the track ...)

I wish Porsche and Ferrari would offer an option to go to the factory and participate hands on in building the engine going into the car I order!

Le Mans wins? Worthless
Validation by F1 and Indy drivers? Who cares?
Carbon brakes and electronic suspension? Old technology

Adherence to pure driving feel without excessive electronic intervention? Stupid

I dont really care for Vettes but driving them sure is fun...apparently some professionals share the same opinion?
