I have no idea how to reply to that statement Shado. I'm actually scared to come up with a statement with words like "Z drivers" and "metrosexual tendencies" in the same sentence. so I will bow out with style.

I think I need a hat... Al's hat.

There are a few contradictions in your original statement. First, you say that while cruising, driving sedately, and "enjoying the ride," the car seems to be like a caged beast wanting to be let out. Now to me, that analogy doesn't really scream soulless and cold. That being said, this whole thread kind of smacks of a wine tasting party where everyone stands around spending 90% of their time discussing the wine instead of drinking it.

Nah, we own the car and drive it frequently, for some its their DD. We've bought the wine and are all drinking, tasting, and discussing the wine.

Yeah I have def never gotten "cute" before but I actually have heard badass a few times. Especially after people have heard my exhaust

RoshDawg · 10-05-2011, 12:53 PM

You do need Al's hat, just the sight of him in that hat would make a lesbian turn straight in a blink of an eye.

yep agreed, the S2K's have very nimble handling but unless one totally f-ked up the alignment or messed up the wheels/suspension setup it should drive very solidly straight or through the corners.

Yeah, some people don't have an issue with it.

There was nothing wrong with this particular car, it's a design issue, as I said, related to the electronic power steering.

The issue isn't that the car doesn't drive straight or handle nimbly, it's that there is little feedback from the wheel. It's a common complaint with the car.

Why I would notice it and not you two guys... I don't know for sure, but it's probably because I'm better than you.
