The car mainstream manufacturers produce cars with varying specs. They entice buyers to go upwards as there is more profit.
Look at Morgan, go to the car creator and build up from the base spec. Watch the ££££££ increase. Bloody hell.....£200+ for different colour thread for leather stitching!
By that argument is any car above bog standard base spec a toy?
Is the badge the enticement? Is an “M” badge the car to toy changer? Remember when fuel injection became more mainstream? The “i” badge was a desirable attribute. Escort 1.6 a utility car but the efi badge makes it a toy? Disc brakes....a stick on badge changed a drum brake car to a toy? Even if no discs added!
I’d like a 2CV as a daily runabout. Is it then a toy?
