And MY point is you ARE WRONG, and telling people that know these cars inside and out that they are wrong is just plain stupid. You are telling us that it isn't the norm and you only response was you go to the track every wed. and Satu.
As for believing all things on the i-net....DUDE< these cars are f'ing 5 years OLD.....You are simply ignorant on the topic.
Thank you Carl.

Cliff Notes of story: It was midnight, I was in the far Left lane on interstate and a 18 wheeler started coming over on me, I floored it to get out of his way since I was towards the front half of his truck, instant loss of traction, spun around and my front end hits the concrete barrier. Air bags popped so I couldn't start the car to move it, then 2 min later a dude in a crown vic paying no attention never gets over into another lane and never hits the brakes.

It's all good, I'm going to school to be an airplane mechanic and a missionary pilot all in one, so I'd say it'll work out eventually...

i was thinking about being an airplane mechanic...but didn't want to go to school an hour away for another 13 months, so I just did avionics, and am about to move to Phoenix. Good luck with being a mechanic. Don't get caught standing on the flaps when the avionics guys start testing them. lol.
