true....but like anything mechanical, suspension, steering, etc things will wear out over time...the last thing you want is a little play in the REAR wheels because one of the 4WS related bushings wore out....Again...I'm only going by what I've heard from owners, once that starts happening you can look forward to two things: a hefty repair bill, some sketchy driving.

Besides, I don't think Ricki will be buying this car to be a corner-carving auto-x champ car. I think for her purposes 4WS would be a complete waste and nothing but a POSSIBLE financial timebomb without any benefits at all...that's just my two shiny pennies, though
