The weight of the car is something debatable... Since it has the gas tank on top of the rear axle, when the tank is full or empty the car handles perfectly... Instead when it is 3/4 and 1/2 full you feel a bit of weight unbalance on the rear... Thats why on the Spider the engineers lowered the gas tank...

However the car for me has great handling and is the funniest thing I have ever driven in my life... They tested it on the wet and therefore his judgement is biased... And since it is a very powerful and nervous car when its raining you have to press the 'wet' mode... Since the car will handle very badly in wet conditions!
