That kind of torque steer isn't all that bad..........The worst kind is when you get torque steer just crusing down the road/highway and stepping into the gas to pass someone, like the Pontiac G6 I rented recently. It was so irritating that it would be reason enough to buy the 4-cyl instead of the V6 in that car.
