What's your problem? Why can't you have your opinion about the Maxima's excellent handling and the rest of us have ours? Because some of us don't agree with you, that makes us a confused bunch. Please....

Truth is, for what I paid for this car, I expected better handling and had no idea about the body roll and torque steer until after driving it for some time - probably after the 1000 mile break in period even.
Yep!! I am not overly impressed, especially when touted as 'cars like it: 0'. For the money is one thing...to live up to a sports/sporty sedan category is quite another.

If you take corner fast and floor it and there is a bit of moisture on the ground, you start sliding like crazy. But on the dry surface I love the way my car handles.
I came to a stop up on a hill and had to make a left. It was slightly damp out, well I hit the gas normal not gunning it or anything, I sat there spinning the tires. I let off the gas and then hit it even lighter barely pushing it in and they spun again. It wasn't too impressive
