The accelerator curve is really cool. A lot of modern cars just have a sensor that detects your pedal position and a simple algorithm decides how much power to translate that into. It's like adjusting the mouse speed on a computer. Feels like you're driving a different car.

Having said that, the default curve is often the best curve. They put a lot more effort into getting it right than you would.
