Right on bro! Here is an actual quote from a cop who pulled me over after watching me make a left turn:
"I watched you make that turn and I though for sure you wold lose it. If you were driving a civic, you would have been in the ditch for sure"
Me: "ummmm. uh huh."
Him: "I thought I was watching a race car, why did you do that?"
Me while pulling up my average MPG on the dash showing 26.4: "I try not to waste gas by slowing down too much"
He didn't write any tickets since as far as I know, there is no speed limit on 90 degree turns. The story of his reaction was well worth getting pulled over for.

damn you guys are bashing hard on these american muscle guys. dont get me wrong i love my car to death but im like that Z06 guy or w/e, i dont care where a car comes from as long as its an all around good car ill like it. the only problem is most american cars are not all around good. like the other nite i got a nasty speeding ticket and all the cop said was he was suprised he didnt kill himself trying to keep up with me around the exit ramp, its cause he was driving a crown vic and i was in my audi. (btw i took the turn at 80mph safely)

I really like the Z06's, besides the great look, power and handling, it can do almost 30mpg[sm=smiley20.gif]

RE: Could I take an Altima?
Uhm... I am lame and drive an altima now and they are actually really fast but any curve to the road and you will fear for your life. The Altima goes from 65-100 a lot smoother than the A4 and actually feels sooooooooooooooooo much more stable doing so and not like it's fighting to do it. I had a 99.5 A4 1.8T with nothing done to it though. Altima though has a lot of sway in it and suspension is soooooo bouncy. A4 was not like that at all.
