Also - totally did NICOFest Tail of the Dragon this past weekend in the Q50.

GD wheels and tires (probably moreso the tires). The only thing that really held me back in the corners - that and...

Congrats dude! You're due a month after we are!

If my Z was paid off, I would have taken that route I believe. I wrestled with it though, because even if it was paid off, the car would've sat...

I plan on getting another Z to play around with one day, but this really is a great car for the meantime. I'm enjoying it more and more every time I drive it.

There's a decent amount of...

Mine specifically does not have Direct Adaptive Steering, which I found to be more enjoyable than the steer-by-wire version I test drove. I stuck with the electronically assisted hydraulic steering...

The S4 is a nice car, but I have found that its performance is marginally better than the others I'm looking at for the extra money it costs to get into one.

That, and I'm not the biggest fan of...

I did not - dealer was a real stick in the mud and made the entire experience awkward, so about halfway through the test drive, I was trying to ignore he was even in the car.

So after my test drive with the steer-by-wire (which is the Deluxe Touring Package that features that, btw), I found the system to not be as bad as people say. You can even tune the steering feel...

It does, however, feature an 8 speed dual clutch transmission. I find that fairly impressive. For some reason, I'm just not interested in the rest of the car.

It is officially dead, sadly.

However, it would be cool if they brought the Pulsar over as a Sentra hatch and made the Nismo version to toss it up there with the Focus ST, GTI, upcoming Civic...

Do you know if it had the deluxe touring package? That is the one that has steer-by-wire. The S-trim without the DTP is an electronically assisted hydraulic rack and should feel different.

Every car has a throttle and your right foot controls all that whether you have 30 hp or 3000. If you have to rely on power output to be disciplined with your driving, you're doing it wrong.

I thought pretty heavily about that. You lose the stronger transmission, center diff control, and brembos that you get on the STI though. I may very well not miss them between the STI and WRX when...

Sadly, you'd never know that by looking at it. Blandest looking performance-oriented car on the market (I know looks are subjective, but that's how I see it).

I have no doubt it performs well,...
