Very stable. Growling engine and little wind noise. Extremely stable but I have 255 section front tires and 275 section rear tires. Very different from the M6 which is wailing like a banshee. The chief difference I see in the two is that the M6 has a certain joy in going fast and always wants more while the i8 always feels that it needs to be urged on a bit.
