Love the Kitana blue driving gloves. Will add to my amazon wish list. That hair bleach job thou.
I can also attest to it's excellent handling. A month ago a car entered our lane and we had to swerve hard left to avoid being hit. GX handled very well and the accident was avoided.

After watching tons of Russian accident videos, it's refreshing to see someone there who drives pretty well.

Yes. The off roading left me a little anxious about damage. Where can I learn that sliding back to front 180 move at 6:05? I have the crappy Bridgestone tires so no big deal wearing them down to practice.

Check out any of the performance driving schools. A great one here in Austin, TX is DrivewayAustin.com.

Yeah a J-turn performed in the GX will certainly impress the neighbors... assuming it's done correctly lol
