German steering is, in my view, about straight line tracking on a freeway or highway. A German car will steer straight ahead until it is told to turn with the steering wheel, of course. This desirable steering feature is not often grasped by both car buyers and entire car companies. To me it is not about cornering and the resulting ride might be a little stiffish but not uncomfortable.
Our 1974 Opel was the best driving car that we have ever owned. VWs have it and a relative’s Australian-designed Pontiac G8 had it. A Mazda that I test drove had it too. A Honda Accord that I test drove had a little of it.
If there was an easy way to incorporate German steering in any car, I would like to know about it.
