Personally, I would tell the engineers one thing: "build the FASTEST $50K production car in the world, period". yup...I'm giving my guys an addition $8K in sticker so they can go for the GOLD!

Priorities:
1-Performance
2-Stealth..but strong looks
3-comfort only if buget remains for it.

Default Surely, you jest. Comfort is usually number 1, if not 2.
That's why Ferrari has air conditioning and leather for god sakes.

How about

Performance. Comfort. Reliability.

so, you want a Corvette? That appears to hold that title, at least per the back of Motor Trend Mag.

Default fire the German "engineers" and replace them with honda engineers but...
have the Germans oversee the dynamics and feel of the systems.

Then build in in Japan with competent Japanese workers.

Default Screw that...it has nothing to do with the engineers themselves
Just teach the Germans about Deming. He's an American, you know.
