Quoted from the article:
~~~~
the car is prone to weave and wander on the lumpy, cruddy ribbons of black that pass for country roads, and the level of weighting and feel does not totally translate the front-end workload.

I sort of agree - fanging the car at Mt. Dangdenong yesterday arvo for the first time. The DSC is very good. I found hard to keep up with my friends 400kW Skyline R34 GTR. Who isn't?

I found the car is slightly oversteer ~ changing my technique shifting down and power up the slide for the 30kmh corner is magnificant. I love it!

Only if I have another drive of the Lotus Elise or the S2000 on the Mt. Dandenong Rd then I will be ok !

Tori:D :D :D :D :D
