    Perhaps nose heavy but that helped it maintain excellent stability at higher speeds in inclement weather.  For the vast majority of drivers, understeer is the preferred driving dynamic.  Only for the most skilled, does it shift to neutral or slight oversteer.

    higher speeds? Once I managed 180km/h for a few minutes. I think max speed was 235 km/h but in North America it came limited to 205 km/h. Personally I didn't like the pull from the heavy front when cruising, the same chassis with a 4cyl engine and haldex had much better balance and feel when driving. Something like the S3 or the TT.

    In the States, 120 to 130 km/h is considered high speed so limiting the car to 205 km/h is more than ample.
