Can't Imagine a More Fun Car

Been lurking on the board a while, had my GTS for a month or so. I live in Ohio so I spent several hours on Sunday driving the roads of the Hocking Hills. It was a light rain and the roads were twisty and tight, multiple elevation changes, some hairpins and long rollers. The car was amazing. My face is sore from smiling for four hours straight.

I just returned from a 600 mile trip and I have to agree, the Car was an absolute blast in the city and on the highway. Thumbs up everywhere, and on the road passing power is just amazing and you sort of have to restrain yourself. I drove in comfort mode on highway and GT actually felt luxurious except for tire noise on whiter highway surfaces which was annoying. Hoping PS4s will cure this.

My friend was just remarking how balanced the car feels on cornering. Very planted and composed.
