I've never had stability control and never missed it. IMO, it can let drivers develop bad habits. The few times I have experienced stability controls or traction control in other cars, I felt it was overly/unnecessarily intrusive.

Having driver training that emphasizes control at/beyond the limits of adhesion would be much better, but of course that's probably a bit much to expect...

God knows the unskilled masses are much better off with traction/stability controls, but my personal preference is for no driver aids.
