Thanks a lot for the review. Just_Me You are simply awesome...the best threads on the GCZ.

I remember the last time I drove an "Overpowered" FWD car.

It was a Cadillac Seville STS with FWD and 300 Bhp.

One of the worst handling and road holding cars I've ever driven. So much for GM's "Standard of the World" brand...

Only an idiot would have the idea to make an FWD car with 300 Bhp and combine with a soggy suspension. The damn thing understeered and rolled badly when going around corners and it was unbelievably twitchy on the wet.

No wonder Cadillac flopped in Europe.
