The chassis is really the secret for why this car is so special. Delivered from the factory it has a bias towards oversteer that is so easily correctable it makes novices feel like race car drivers. IMO this was the specific intent of the designers and the very reason why the power level remains where it is despite the never ending outcry from the journalists for more.

However massive improvements in cornering ability are available from the aftermarket at the expense of the playfull nature. Stiff springs and wider stickier tires definately change the bias of the car and rear grip will overpower the front with stock alignment settings. Pyrometer doesn't lie. Trail braking works somewhat until the computer you thought you had shut off suddenly awakes and tries to kill you. Adding 3 degees up front is game changing at this point, it is amazingly effective for restoring the balance especially combined with setting the rear toe to zero.

I absolutely love this car for all the reasons above. It has been a blast tweaking and modifying, seeing the effects and adjusting the car and myself accordingly. Can't wait to start all over now that forced induction has been added to the equation!
