Is this normal or am I just crazy?
When I go around long sweeping corners and I'm really pushing it, the car will get to the point where normally, I feel like the back of the car would step out. However, the SVX feels like something plants and pushes the car around the corner from the back. Is this normal?
I remember in my Legacy, it was easy to tell when the car was rolling so bad that it would step out of line easily. I know my mom's 08 Impala squeals around corners sometimes that's how bad it rolls. The SVX however just doesn't do any of that stuff.

I don't call it near the limit. It's just this weird sensation where it feels like the back of the car is rolling into position to turn. I've never felt in a car before, not even a Corvette.

passive 4 wheel steering. I should be able to explain the ins and outs of why and how it works in a few weeks...
