Boy, did you ever pick the wrong analogy. There are plenty of sports cars purpose-built for track days that lack creature comforts.You don't see sport car out there that is purpose built for the track
Not that either of us are qualified to answer this one way or another, but, from what I gather, there are a ton people (myself included) who want pro-features (which, let's face it, are just a bunch of dedicated controls, a few extra mechanisms and some firmware tweaks) on a budget. Nikon just needs to figure out what features will keep the pros buying the more expensive pro gear; probably high-ISO performance, higher resolution, weather-sealing, heavy-duty build quality, etc.It would be ideal for alot of us if they do this, but there isn't a big enough market for Nikon to bother with. They would have to sell alot to keep the prices down and they probably can't do it without the support of soccer mom.
