It all depends. Suspensions and steering can be tightend up as much as you like. The main appeal of these cars, though, is cruising along an open highway in leisurely comfort. They are not the best choice for modern traffic, where people are zipping around at 75 and 80 mph, nor are they particularly happy carving canyons. You tweak them to your personal taste, then love them for what they are.
