I dunno, Richard, but I always sort of thought that race car durability
concerns were primarily designed to achieve the goal that the car holds
together long enough to be still going fast at the end of the race and that
what happened fifty feet past the finish line was of little concern.

Personally, I would prefer that my fast S6 retains its ability to go fast
for many years.  But that's just me. ;-)
