I've been looking at this car for awhile and been planning on purchasing it because I love the design and looks like fun to drive; but if it has poor traction on the roads, it does worry me. And doesn't the highly rated handling mean the car won't slide out of control?
sorry for the newbish questions!

This car and the stock tires work fine in the rain if you leave the nannys on and especially if you don't drive like an idiot, I live in the very wet PNW and have had no issues, here was a very wet drive not long ago on a very twisty road, I had no slides, no scares and actually enjoyed being smooth with it:

TL;DR the RWD, nannies and stock tires are fine in the rain as long as you don't drive like an idiot.
