However, that M4's rear suspension was quite STIFF which was stiffer than my GSF's OEM front or rear suspension!!! (That M4's front suspension was also softer than my GSF's OEM front or rear suspension!!! I would say GSF's suspension is more balanced which is better for at least 99% of the drivers on the road!!! Why at least 99% of the driver??? That's because at least 99% of drivers are average drivers and don't have any racing skills!!!)
PS: Please be noted that a stiffer rear suspension could make car easier to turn but it also could become unstable and dangerous when the grip is low like wet roads!!!

In 2022, I test drove a 2022 TLX Type S and 3 months ago, my wife test drove a 2024 TLX(not Type S) and I sat on the passenger seat... I didn't find any nosedive when braking in both TLXs!!! I think Accord's suspension should be softer than TLX, even though TLX including Type S is more comfortable than Accord... (I also believe TLX Type S is more stable than regular TLX on highway... OF COURSE!!!
)In 2004 I test drove a 2004 Accord in Taiwan... If I remember it correctly, I think 2004 Accord had more nosedive which was also more abrupt than my son's 2024 Accord...
I encountered a crazy Model Y this summer... That Model Y driver drove like a F1 driver from a dead stop under a traffic light!!!

Yes... That Model Y was lighting fast from that dead stop. Then, I just followed that Model Y. That Model Y driver continuously FLOORED his throttle. To catch up with that Model Y, my GSF almost reached 100mph!!!

Then... Guess what... Model Y began to slow down and my GSF overtook that Model Y at around 60mph.
Then... Again... Model Y continued to slow down and stayed behind my GSF even though my GSF was only around 40mph!!!

PS: Yes. EVs are faster INITIALLY. But, if they want to keep that advantage, they have to keep FLOORING their throttles... Keep FLOORING, Keep FLOORING, Keep FLOORING (until back off the throttle or A CRASH!!!)
Firstly, there could be some pedestrians on the road even though the traffic light turns green!!! Secondly, there are some crazy drivers trying to run a red light!!! (I had encountered this situation in both Taiwan and USA!!!)
In addition, if you do that, you're KILLING your tires!!!

In 2017, my young Indian colleague warned me that his wife's car was 2014 Accord and it was not very safe when his wife crashed that Accord!!!
Then, my colleague immediately bought a used 2015 C250 for his wife... (My colleague also installed a speed limiter in that Mercedes!!!
)Actually I didn't think that newer and heavier(more rigid) Mercedes was much safer than his previous Accord as that Mercedes was a bit SMALLER than his previous Accord... (Yes, that heavier Mercedes was safer but NOT A LOT safer!!!)
To be a safer car... You need more rigid(heavier) body or a BIGGER body. A bigger car means more crumple zones!!!

Those safer German cars actually are premium cars like Mercedes, not ordinary German cars VW. The Japanese premium cars are also safer!!!
PS: If German makes better car, why can a RCF GT3 race car built by Toyota/Lexus engineers compete with supercars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc.!!!
