hey, I know what everyone is thinking, we all know the 6th gen isn't the fastest car in its class, this isn't gonna be another one of of those threads but with everyones experiences, how much better or worse does the 6th Gen generally handle compared to other cars in its class such as ford probe/mx6, prelude, integra, hyundai coupe etc etc.

From my experience the SS-I & SS-II handle very cruisy for a sports car, its alot stiffer & low riderish than sedans, but its very soft and high up and the chassis flexes alot for a sports coupe. The SS-III has super strut suspension with front & rear strut bars which improves handling tremendously and brings it up to par with other sports coupes in stock condition. The GT-Four has 4WD which in itself changes the handling alltogether aswell as super strut suspension which makes the GT-Four one of the top handling sports coupes imo. I had been in a GT-Four with tien suspension which made the ride so stiff the car had no flex and your body took all the force. USA ST & GT would have the same handling as SS-I and SS-II I'd imagine?
