Personally, I enjoy G-forces. I enjoy driving nice cars. I just enjoy driving. I get the new car itch every 2-3 years. I value it enough to sacrifice other things in life. Now, I wouldn't know this if I hadn't been slowly stepping up the performance of the cars I buy every iteration. I think I knew it once I'd driven a Grand Prix GTP (supercharged V6).
Add to that the Roadster. Sure, driving the STi was fast. But it was loud, jerky, clumsy, and took skill/concentration. The Roadster gives me the opportunity to enjoy *smooth* acceleration frequently without working at it or making a racket, or smelling up the place, etc. I do it all the time. More than I did before (because it's so easy). And I love it. That's why I'm going with the performance Model S. Yes, I could use the $10k elsewhere, but I'll use the performance aspect *all the time* and I'll enjoy the thrill of doing it.
Do you like roller coaster rides? G-forces? ...
