Sweet color! I know they don't have that here! Is it just me, or did that car look unusually bouncy in some shots?

Is it just me or does their suspension looks a lot lower than the one we get in the US?

Probably. They tinker with ride height so the bumpers will pass federal crash tests.

Default Directions to these roads>

Located Between Nice and Monaco on top of the hills. One of the strech of road starts in a village called La Turbie right before driving down to Monaco.

This specific road is used by most manufacturers and journalists for driving and shooting cars for magaizine. Read any European car issue with a new car driven in southern france and you will see mostly the saem road and background. One of the latest issue with the GTI was driven on the exact same road.

And yes I am from there but reside in NY

Two words for you:

Route Napoleon

Go to south-eastern France, point your car towards the back-coutry hills and pretty soon you'll find yourself on some 2 lane twisty road looking just like the one on that video...
