What a hoot this car is to drive! I uh.......had to go look at some tropical fish my wife might want.... (yeah, that was a good excuse), so I took the beast for a spin. First turned up the Logic 7 waaaaaay up, noticed my stability control light kept coming on, so I turned it down so I could concentrate.
Blew through some new roads they just put in around the farmland, soon-to-be strip malls etc.... Threw the car into some turns, goosed the throttle, moved that back end around and then hit it! Ka-boom! That sucker planted all 4 tires and leapt forward like a scalded cat. The throttle response gives you that instant kick in the back and you just hang on baby!
Had lots of fun triggering the orange light on the dash. In few weeks I'll turn off the DSC when it's daytime and it's just me and the cows.
This thing is dangerous - I'm still grinning.

It's one of the few edgy things I can do with it that I could actually claim (to the police officer) is totally legal. A speed limit of 35 or 40 means I can take a corner at 30 mph, right? He'll be left with some crappy "careless driving" charge; but there's nothing careless, or reckless, about fast corners in a car that stable! Look at the 275s on the rear, forchrissake, officer!
