I'm 6 food and 170lbs. I find the wheel to low. but I make due. The only thing I'd improve is the motor, as I stated earlier. The other 'flaws' are what give this car it's character.

I wouldn't change anything else. AWD would change the balance. Auto would ruin the 'drivers' experience.

It would be killer to make it 300hp. BUt maybe, as I type this, it doesnt need to be faster.

Sometimes I feel like a bunch of people have small penis complexes and need to compete to feel like a 'real man'. I've never driven slower then I have in this car, aside from some runs I make.

Tilt steering, or a stock removable steering wheel. Sometimes getting in and out with the top up sucks

how about this...
4.8-liter 72-degree V10 putting out 560 hp at 8,700 RPM (that's 116.5 hp/liter) and 354 lb.-ft. of torque at 6,800 RPM
Redline: 9,000 RPM
Titanium valves, connecting rods, forged aluminum pistons, dry sump lubrication and a titanium exhaust manifold
Six-speed sequential gearbox
Torsen limited slip differential
3,263 pounds with a 48/52 front-to-rear weight distribution
Power-to-weight ratio of 5.8 pounds/hp
65 percent of the body is carbon fiber
20-inch BBS wheels wrapped in 265/35 ZR20 Bridgestone tires in front and 305/30 ZR20 in the rear.
0-62 MPH (100 km/h) in 3.7 seconds
Top speed of 201.94 MPH
and if you really like that you should really buy this...

Graft on 2 more cylinders and de-stroke the F22C back to a square bore at 0.5L per cylinder.

Result? A smooth 3.0L inline 6 cylinder engine with a 9,000 RPM redline and 360 HP + ~225 Ft/Lb Tq.
