What do you need launch control for its for girlies that don't know how to drive, only place you could really use it would be on a track day and the Nurburgring is the greatest race track in the world and the best times lap records were with cars that did not have launch control junk. Old F1 & Capri Zakspeed 4-pot 1.3L Kents bored out are still the fastest way round the Ring the toughest circuit in the world.

 

Nurburgring F1 circuit length 22,835 M.

1st 1975 Ferrari Niki Lauda F1 - 6:58

2nd 1976 McLaren/Ford James hunt F1 - 7:06

3rd 1982 Ford Capri Zakspeed G5 Touring Car - 7:08

 

Nurburgring circuit 20,832 length M. is a much better indication of how good the cars were in the shoot out on paper times don't mean a thing.

Do the Nurburging in the real world if you want to be the top of the list of fastest lap times or become the best of the best which are none of those listed in Motor Trends item.

Gotta say the Focus RS & ST offer better value for money compared to a Bugatti Veyron what are you going to waste 46 seconds on?
