Default Wow!!!

After my extended test drive yesterday (what an fantastic day for a test drive) me and Mrs Pie are both smitten with the S. The only downside is I'll have to wait 6months to get one

The dealer let me out in a 51 plate MCB for over 2 hours, although he did say bring it back in an hour, but as you guys probably know I got a little carried away

Observations and comparrissons against my ATR - Chalk and cheese

Well I thought it would be a struggle coming from the accord over to the S but it wasn't, it is just so much more of a focused drivers car, now that really surprised me as i love my accord dearly, pin sharp turn in, very good brakes, no body roll to speak of. Oh yes I like this car a lot.
Overstear was easily provoked and controlled on the windly country lanes of staffordshire I liked that a lot too

You definatly notice the step in vtec at around 6k, but there's even more of a surge around 8k towards the 9k redline Fantastic.

God i love this car, in 2 hours driving we had several comments from "now thats a car" to "wow" and "nice car mate" (shame it isn't mine )

Yet!!!!
