Thumbs up Incredible turning radius

Remove this ad
I washed my car and wanted to it around so I could put it in the garage properly. I pull down my driveway (its the normal one car wide that expands at the entrance) I cut to the right edge and into the street hook a sharp left and in one smooth move pull back into my driveway. Never had to think about throwing it into reverse.
I just find this incredible and parking lot type manuvers are a breeze.
Just a simple thing but it is appreciated.

Re: Incredible turning radius

Thought you were going to say you goosed it and spun it around. Now that's a tight turning radius.

Re: Incredible turning radius

I've only owned FWD, so this turning radius thing gives me a chubby!

All my buddies constantly marvel at it.

Re: Incredible turning radius

My last car was a FWD Acura CL-S and I had to 3-point turn constantly...so annoying.

Re: Incredible turning radius

Without any mods, a stock V can swing the back end around without wheelhop.



And it's not just my friends, everyone marvels at the chubby...
