Why does every review of the Redline say that it's numb steering is so bad, that it isn't worth discussion, yet the Cobalt is great? Can someone answer me that? I get so pissed on a day-to-day basis over this matter. It's the same steering setup, suspension, springs, power steering, you name it. Is this just typical 'crappy Saturn' mentality or what? Does anyone here think that it has 'numb steering'. I always hear this term thrown around, and I've seen it in some old beater cars that I've driven before, but not in this car. It turns a whole lot more crisply than a Civc would ever hope to. Seems like if a 'sports coupe' dosen't transmit expansion cracks right to the steering wheel, it has numb steering. I've never drive anything other than sports cars/coupes, except for my last Saturn, and I just don't get how this car has numb steering. Maybe I'm confused about what that term really means?

Well, maybe living in a northern city, large city, with bad roads, makes me appreciate the lack of every detail. I still feel most, if I can see the crack in the road ahead of me, I know that I'll fell it as well. I don't want the steering wheel to let me feel every mini crack. I guess numb to car mags is not 'numb' to all of us!
