Default Re: Can anything be done about the steering?

Yes, the GT86 steering is great and so is that of other small sports cars like the Miata and even larger and heavier ones like the 350Z will turn better. It would definitely be great if the Crossfire steering felt that way.

Pity though that the GT86/BRZ/FR-S look so generic. The Crossfire is so much more interesting looking and distinct, I also much prefer the engine in the Crossfire. I know the GT86 has a flat 4 engine but it is still a 4 cylinder. All together, I'm hoping that a well sorted Crossfire with suspension and brake upgrades plus a power boost will help make up for the short comings of the car. Specially when added to the unique styling.
