M3Pig, you will definitely like it. I've driven mine a bit today, about 100 miles of rather gentle driving
(for me). Just trying to let things settle in, so to speak. But, a very short while, I opened it up a
little leaving a 4 way stop. Mashed the gas a bit, and started the wheels spinning. Big difference.

In the past, when I'd put my foot down a bit hard, the wheels would spin, and the rear end would
start drifting to the left, then it would come back into line and off I'd go, still spinning the wheels. In
this case, I felt both sides grabbing and the rear end started drifting to the right, but hard pushing
forward. I looked back in the mirror and saw two clearly visible black lines on the road.

Even normal acceleration from a stop feels different. Just feels more solidly planted. All this is a bit
sujective, though. And could be just first ride blush. But I like it. Seems to corner better, too.

The lesson I took from this is that I need to relearn how to launch this car. The dynamics have
definitely changed.
