Or maybe it's you. There are some drivers who are A) extremely good or B) Willing to live with a hard ride and/or extreme senstivity to driver inputs in order to be able to drive like Hell. Come to think of it, if you always drive like Hell (no nose-to-tail commutes), you'd never know the difference.

It does takes some finesse, but you don't blame equipment when it delivers performance in scale with sensitive input from the driver. It functions very well as a "every day car," but that is a poor characterization of this tour de force. Yeah, roads here in Washington State suck. At speed, expansion joints come fast and many, but one can't have both comfort and performance.
