I promise not to ask about snow tyres, but I am interested in how "chuckable" the C32 is, particularly since the roads are so greasy at the moment. Does it drift or oversteer predictably or throw you off the road with contempt!? My nerves are slightly shot from a 50:50 moment at very high speed on the motorway before Christmas where with no warning at all I found myself sliding about 100m or so down the road with full reverse lock on (wife, kids & luggage in the car) and by luck as much as skill found myself still alive and pointing the right way. My sin - a slight lift off the throttle while looking in the (frozen) mirror to move back in a lane after passing.
Don't get me wrong - I like a lively car and love chucking things around tracks and occasionally the odd open road. I don't love things that will kill me out of the blue! This is especially relevant since my wife will be driving it all week long until I can play with it at the weekend!
So two questions really - how well behaved is it for a "normal" driver who won't be pushing it at all; and how much fun is it for a more enthusiastic driver who's plenty happy with a bit of movement, as long as it's intentional!? How is it on slow speed bends - does it understeer and feel heavy and cumbersome or turn in nicely and allow for a little tail wagging?
