Fun with my XS today

So I took today off and took my daughter to check out a college in Connecticut today. Set my Nav to take local roads once I crossed the
Tappan Zee Bridge. The Nav brought me through some great hilly, twisty, country roads and I soaked it all in. The G performed flawlessly and I ripped through with the 18's on. Great fun!

I highly recommend keeping the traction control on and not going crazy on the first time at least.

agreed, unless you are trying to drift, i would keep traction control on. atleast for rwd, it is a life saver. not sure about awd.

With the X you can turn the VDC off. No worries really if you're on dry pavement which I was. That was my experience with my old '04X. I wasn't going too crazy though. Just having some spirited fun.

I don't ever turn my TC off unless I'm on my favorite abandoned parking lot...
