if you ask me it depends on what your main use for the car is
but if its main use is a daily driver then i see no need to have a spec c version of any as i understand it has less weight to give you more performance
and i would rather have carped boot, electric windows, more sound deadening etc for every day use plus i wouldnt miss or notice the extra performance on the road but i would miss the electrics etc!
as for everybodys comment on the ver7's looks, to me its a personal taste thing some will like it and some wont so stop trying to defend it
