Its not really that practicality is bad for it... just that its not really required as in most cases these cars wouldn't be daily drivers and the owner would have alternate vehicles that offer alot more practicality anyway.
Ok...I respect your opinion on the F1, but I have one question. Have you ever driven an F1? And if you haven't is it really fair to call it a boring failure? I personally think the F1 has a very interesting and beautiful shape, but I understand if you don't like it; however, if you haven't driven the F1 it seems hasty to say its a failure...

You're getting mixed up. I said I find the styling dull and boring. Mclaren said it was a financial failure.

Both these facts would be unchanged regardless if I have driven it or not.

I think everything has now been said that needs to be said and I am glad we can all agree that the F50 is the better car.
