OE LSD vs. Aftermarket LSD: All of the target vehicles are available with Limited Slip Differentials (or electronic equivalents) as standard equipment in some optional configuration. Restricting all cars to OE limited slips would reduce costs.

Inclusion of 2006-present Mazda MX-5: Is this car appropriate given the desired performance level of the class?
