    Perhaps you'd be more comfortable with a fwd car? :roll:
    I vote tires being your problem.

                  my car is a ton of fun in the rain. I do get quite a bit more wheelspin though, especially through intersections that are really worn down.

                      It was exactly at that speed it started to break loose! LOLZ wheelspin right up to 3rd gear

                          I used to drive an '83 Volvo 245 Turbo with fairly slick tires. After a light rain the pavement would be just slick enough that with a little help from the snail I could put myself sideways pretty much anywhere, and because of the long wheelbase I could get it back safely. Then came winter and four studded snow tires...:evil:

                          Now is the era of the e30, not as predictable when sideways but ultimately more fun. And winter is just around the corner...

                            Though I havn't driven a LOT of other cars, from what I have driven, the E30 is always the most predictable. Compared to an E36/46...the E30 actually COMMUNICATES with the driver; you know when breakaway is coming, you know when the weight is gonna transfer; all in advance. Inputs have to be made before the expected happens; and the E30, IMO, lets you know everything well in advance.

                              The e30 IMO was a bit more predictable than the e28 in the rain...I wish the e28 had an LSD.
