Powerslave's comments sum it up pretty well, though I don't agree with the torque steer being so hard to handle (could just be that I'm used to it). I find the cordia handling can be improved fairly easily, but the brakes are still the weak point. However, a pair of twin-spot vr4 calipers on the front will make it stop :D
If you're going to mod it, the starion will be just as fast and handle better, at the cost of a much smaller back seat and boot (you do get better standard equipment tho).
Cordia, powered by EVO...

Yes, also doubles as how much thought is required when deciding between purchase of Starion and Cordia.
