I'm not saying you SHOULD drive one a that speed now, but 25 to 30 years ago, they were built for that purpose. Did you ever wonder why a $30K (in 1975 to 1980 dollars) luxury sports car doesn't have a cup holder? It's because they were built for the European market (originally) and drinking or eating anything while driving, over there, is something they do not do. When they drive, that's all they are concerned with.
