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).

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