Nate,

It's quite common for innovations to show up on the high end cars, but not enjoy wide spread acceptance for a long time.

Today's bottom of the line cars are chocked full of such things. Everything from disc brakes, to fuel injection, to overhead and dual overhead cam, and on and on.

As technology and competition march along, innovations come with it.
