Re: rain.....
Dude, its called driving in the rain. You guys in CA are spoiled. You can't peel out at every light in the rain in any car.

Re: rain.....
Tire pressures play a big part in wet traction especially. Make sure they're at the recommended 35psi.

Re: rain.....
Yes, the G isn't good in the rain. This is a RWD GT Coupe that is quite raw. You just have to take it slow when the streets are wet. Also blame part of it on the tires...Michelin Pilot Sports are great in the dry, but not so good in the wet. When your tires wear down, switch over to Potenza S-03's, they are better than the Pilot Sports in the dry (better resistance to heat, as well) and they are absolutely superb in the rain.
