Oh I forgot you have never raced anything in your life... let me explain for a third time...
It's a fake feeling of performance. In reality you are going slow and breaking the back end loose because of prius tires and 200hp. But it feels like you are on the last lap at le mans. You really aren't, but it feels like you are. What do we call that? A facade? Fake? Right? That is perfectly fine. It makes a cheap car fun to drive in the opposite way of a muscle car. Works as intended...
Yet you think it is the performance bargain of the century. Weight, center of gravity (I think you mean weight distribution here) and balance are things important to overall performance but they don't make it perform without power, grip, and braking. The way you describe it's performance you might as well take the engine out and make it into a coffee table.
Edit: I love when everyone else in the subforum gets it but the target continues to bash his head into a brick wall.
You are good at 2 things FMX, making up lingo, and making assumptions about people you know nothing about.
'false performance' isn't a term, because it isn't a thing. (no matter how hard you try, over and over, i think you're on the 3rd attempt to make it a thing at this point)
You yourself said that any car can go 55mph, so you're saying every car can make the same turn at 55? or would the performance of the handling have a direct effect on the ability to do that? (or 'false performance' in your words)
Center of mass height
Center of mass(gravity)
Roll angular inertia
Yaw and pitch angular inertia
These are
some things that effect the handling of a car, they engineered the car with that in mind, it's not an accident.
It's clear as day you can't comprehend the concept of building a brand new car,
a brand new platform from the ground up that's focused on that.

There are a number of ways of increasing performance, with engine power output being the most recognisable. Tires with a high level of grip are also essential. These items can all be modified by customers after they purchase the car. Yet designing a low centre of gravity body from scratch, can
only be achieved by the cars manufacturer.

inb4 arguing with head of subaru engineering divisionI'm not even sure what you're arguing at this point...
'False Performance' isn't a thing and you already said i bought a fun car with performance potential.
Which i already knew
Anything else you want to get out of your system? any other blanket assumptions to make? any more of you telling me what my own opinions and thoughts are? any other terms you want to make up? or are you done looking dumbfuck?
