Skip to 15mins.

I haven’t seen this before with the F Sport.

Nice find! I don't even have an F-Sport but I am amazed at how well this car handles after installing Michelin PS4S tires. My last car was significantly more powerful but didnt come close to the handling of the GS. As I gradually push it more and more I don't miss the power at all and much prefer the well sorted chassis and suspension of the GS.

I’d really like to know where you go to “push it” in So FL... I’m one of those guys who likes to just “go for a drive”.. but the roads here are so straight and boring... my idea of an exciting curve is the on and off ramps for the turnpike.

To really test the handling limits, you need a section of a road closed off. Tracks are boring and mountains are exciting.

Just various spot on my commute. I didn't mean pushing the limits of the car, just taking certain turns slightly faster on my way to and from to work.

I only use the car to commute, I couldn't imagine ever just going for a drive, I cant stand other drivers. Just the other day someone honked at me while leaving the neighborhood because I was waiting for a crossing guard.
