04/03/03: Games and their effect on our behavior - Page 2

In case you meant me ... (and your question wasn't related to some aspect of a game that I've never played (gran turismo))

The Talon was as close to a neutral steering car that I've driven that wasn't prepped for racing. It was sweet, responsive (okay, maybe it had a wee tendency to understeer).

The Sable seems to have a wicked oversteer issue, but that's a perception based on comparison between "vehicle pretending to be a sports car" and "vehicle pretending to be a much larger sedan than it really is."

The handling of the Sable is VERY nice. It's just VERY sedan-y too ... I love the new car, but I do miss the old one. But it was time to send it to the automotive graveyard. I realize that, but heck, I had it for 8 years. I'm nostalgic. Until I think of the trunk space I have now ...

Minimum altitude, maximum speed, always.
