I think this is one of the funnest driving cars I've ever driven.
Its a lotta fun. You can race people all the way to work weaving in and out of traffic and the cops just don't even see you at all. Don't explore the actual limit of adhesion on the street though cause it might leave the road backwards if you get too aggressive. Fortunately there is plenty of fun inside the limit.

I like it because there is enough power to kick the rear out a bit taking off and turning 90 degrees at the same time.
