The Z handles so good due to super HCAS steering. Plus, Im drunk.

My experience with Z so far is that it's actualy fairly prone to understeer with the stock tires and a hot track...just saying, not sure I buy that data in Wiki.
Again, just my $0.02.
Front wheel drive with understeer is a really bad comparison...you can easily throttle steer and make it look much better than a plowing rear wheel drive car...plus add a touch of lift and the front will regain traction (maybe) and the rear could step out on you to correct (slightly)...i'd say that considerable understeer in a car that isn't a Horse Power Monster...is not set up efficiently
