From reading many of these posts in the past, I get the feeling that some of you can barely fit behind the steering wheel.
Just think, if you had an aluminum engine AND brought your weight down to your table weight. Some of your cars could get 300-400 lbs lighter. Think of the performance gains.
I normally drive with my wife in the car. She weighs in at 123 lbs. when I go on a solo drive, without that extra 123 lbs in the car, my car becomes a whole lot faster and scarier to drive.
Just sayin!

I hear this arguement a lot with bikes. But the truth is even a fatties are entitled to the perceived performance benefits of lighter carbon bikes.
They might not be faster than ,"slim fit Jim", but they still feel the difference.
Ps. Nothing wrong with a little "bling", it's not a dirty word.
