Every time a turn is involved I bet. I see them holding up traffic on winding roads nearly every day.

No, the brand spanking new ones. This is on a winding mountain road where they hold up SUV's and vans too. Not off the line where they absolutely shine.

I'd love to report the opposite. If it ever happens I will but even my Mustang buddy who stayed at my place two weeks, depressingly noted the same thing.

If they're holding up SUVs and vans, it doesn't sound like a car issue.

Agreed. I think you have a point. I am not trying to get under your skin. They sell and rent alot of Camero's, Mustangs, and Chargers, all of which hold up traffic on stated road. Renters will be extra slow being tourists (probobally) too. At some point you would expect to see at least one of these cars, just once demonstrating it's ability. I am still waiting. Yes all of this is anecdotal but I see BMW, Porsche, and Mazda almost every day driving the opposite way.

This comment of mine about Mustangs was originally a reply to someone who's beaten them before. I do assume it was not straight off the line.
