'08 G35 Sedan with or without RAS

Hi,
I am about to place an order for an '08 6MT sedan and I am not sure whether to order it with the Rear Active Steering or not. I want the lightest and best handling car possible and have been unable to find tests with and without the RAS. Does anyone know if this is something I definitely want?
Great site!

Trust me you don't need it, the car handles really well. Save weight, save your money and don't get it.

If you are looking for a test video try doing a search for a link on here to the best motoring video from Japan. The video is in Japanese but you can still see them testing one car with 4WAS and one without along with the time it takes to go around the pylons.

If you drive to and from work on relatively straight roads than this is not the option for you, now if you lived somewhere where you drive twisty mountain passes than this is a viable option.

I have the active steer.. I also heard that G's with Active steer have a stiffer suspension.. even more so then Sport... So you can also get stiffer suspension from active steer, if you don't get the sports....
