Try driving an SUV on the freeway at 80, then switch immediately to a low sports car like a Lotus Elise, and you'll feel like you're going much faster in the Elise, even though you're going the same speed.

Or, for a better example, drive a gokart at 40mph. It'll feel like you're going 80mph.

The loose suspension will make the Explorer feel less stable than the Enzo, for obvious reasons.

RSX's IMO arent worth crap. I been in them and uninpressed. I had an Integra Type R though and that was a damn cool car. The RSX is to bleh.

Anyway , I will agree you feel slower then you are in these. I think so far every time I looked at my speedo im doing 60-80 in residential areas and dont even realize it

Here in real-life... Nobody is attacking anybody. It's called a discussion. People voice their opinions during discussions. During a discussion it is not a requirement to agree with everyone else.
