This is not a car for every one. This is a very stiff drivers car. Its pretty much like driving a motorcycle, you need to be aware of your surroundings kind of thing. You need to be very interested in being a driver to drive this car to drive it normally. This is not recommended as a daily driver.... unless you have the spine of Hercules.
This is raw power and a raw car, you get feed back from everything. No computers trying to tell you what to do... just you and the road.
