RayB:
But did you see how easily that "Diablo" spins out?

I haven't driven it yet. The wife and daughter are hogging it.  :banghead:

The attached picture is not my car, but it shows the color scheme.

Do you like the feel of the suspension?

Here in LA I commute 25 miles each way on the freeway and average 31mph. That is off peak hours - I leave at 9 and drive home around 7... That is life in overpopulated areas that have next to useless public transportation...

I've never been in one, but short wheelbases and smooth rides are tough to pull off. If its sprung stiffly enough not to bottom out all the time, I bet the ride is kind of choppy on rough pavement.

It is small enough to try to weave around the roughness I guess.  ;D

Cakemeister:
I think the ride is a bit rough.

But, a good bit of my commute was just repaved, so I'm in good shape there.

In January I'm planning to drive to Austin, about 2.5 hours one way, if the wife lets me. We'll see how the car performs on the highway.
