like keith said, its hard to catch when it starts to go off, so its a good training car and better than crashing a cayman or lotus. the down side, I will have to survive the crash.

True, its a good training car, and your account wont go bankrupt if you crashed one
but you will need to find a safe place for practice, as there are no traction control (never trust Jap's traction control)
I had played it in the rain in a huge carpark in the UK and had spun few times with "NO" traction control intervened :thumbsdown:

.There are 2 episodes in initial D about throttle control, 1 being the ending of the 4th stage with, you know what, the foot god
. the other one is with the single vs twin turbo RX8.

not too worried abuot DTC, engine is small and presumably not as mad as the honda s2000s, most importantly my right foot hs been well trained by the turbo'd lancia integrale .

if you can afford it, do it sooner rather than later. it will only get harder as you get older, married, kids....
