On twisty back roads in mountainous terrain, where the intended rate of travel is 25 MPH, the 9-5 will tend to get a bit skittish around 110 MPH, yes. At least, that's my experience. :) Otherwise, it's no more unwieldy than any other front-wheel-drive performance car. It's actually rather forgiving... it very clearly communicates when you are pushing it too close to its limits. The body roll may take some getting used to -- it is a bit pronounced, but doesn't seem to actually affect the handling. -- Rob Levandowski roblnopsamhiz.com (Opinions expressed are solely my own and not a statement from my employer)
