The s13 DOES handle good. Better than the ae86. especially through the mountains. This is the s13's strong point.. your opponent takes his ae86 through the turn with a slight hint of oversteer, while your s13 keeps going straight...wait? isnt that understeer..??? NO IDIOT>> it's the s13's suspension computer calculating the shortest distance between 2 points. A STRAIGHT LINE!

I appreciate your comments, pimp, especially since you've got a dissenting view from the majority. During the 8 long months that I owned a Camaro Z28, I discovered that handling ability is much, much, MUCH more important to me than straight-line prowess and power. I'm one of those people who just really likes driving, and I enjoyed my old Saturn SC beater more than the Z28, simply because it was a lot lighter and a lot more fun to drive. It's rare that I ever need to go 150mph on the street or soundly defeat the minivan next to me in a drag race.
Anyway, the supposed handling ability of the 240SX is one of the big reasons I'm drawn to it. Just about everyone says they drive great, but if you disagree with that opinion, I'm interested in hearing (reading) why you feel that way.
