Cheerios and goldfish are harmless, in fact quite welcome to a hangry dad or mom (and hopefully of the 'flavor blasted' variety, yum). Hit the brakes for a turn and *BAM* instant snack at your feet. They keep very well on the floor for years....Its the damn fruit rollups and fruity filled granola bars that are evil. They plaster down and become part of the carpet. No included vacuum can help you. Milk spills gawd....hopefully they have a scotch guard option for the carpet...

Which brings me back to how pointless these gt cars are on road but sigh.. round and round we go.

I'm trying to think of what I feel when I drive on the road. But hard to do because I hardly drive the GT3 on the street and it's been 3 months. I don't ever recall thinking it's harsh for whatever small amount of travel is used.
If a softer suspension comes for the Touring, must be catering to an older fussier crowd.

Let's see if that's true.
