Because understeer is safe? Honestly, driving a car that has natural oversteer is tiring. The first gen of S2000 is a blast on the track, but gets a little dicey if you're just trying to get home from work and shoot one freeway entrance at speed.

BMW errs on the side of caution, which is generally a good thing. The 135i takes it way too far though, even in city driving, the 1er is way too prone to understeer, and the stupid staggered tires just make it worse. But it's predictable and safe.
