Wow tough luck man...
This is kind of giving me second thoughts on getting one of these. My current car (03 Cooper S) hugs the road like anything, barely understeers at the speeds you can do on the road safely. It has never scared me. I have only owned FWD cars. I have fanged around in AWD (rally training, STi, Evo 7) cars which essentially act as a FWD anyway. And I have fanged around in big heavy powerful RWD V8's (track day). This is a different beast that I've never experienced.
I have done one stupid thing in a car before, my first car, a Hyundai Accent (lol), had just done a little handbreaky in a dirt parking lot and thought it was fun. I knew this cars limits as the limits where very easy to get to, but its limit on this one was me. I decided around a corner on a side street to pull the handbreak, straight into the curb and popped my tyre. I was lucky and learnt a lot from that...
Going to RWD and having the posibility of not having as much grip as my current car is going to be somewhat bad... I am not one to turn off traction control though, ever.
That WRX is looking more appealing... I must test drive both obviously.
