Maybe it was because I put the car together by hand, but I can't say I had a similar experience in the Spit I drove... in fact, it was quite opposite. The car was more than fun to swing into the twisties at speeds bordering 60-70 MPH at times, and hard cornering was nothing short of 30-40 MPH with plenty of tire howling.
Could it be a difference in operational skillsets?
I'm not saying it compared even to my wife's current car, but it was definitely more adept than you make it seem, in my hands, anyway.
