Threads Alive! Actually, compared to German cars (BMW, MB) the turning diameter of 33' is pretty wide. My rent's 87 MB 300E (read huge sedan) can do a U-turn in less than 2 car lanes, a MZ3 takes at least 2.5, just enough to warrant a 3-pointer on a residential street :evil:
Also, if you make your U-turn from the left turning lane and there's a divider, that takes up space too. We do have narrow roads in NY. If I made a U-turn on the Long Island Expressway I could do it in 2 lanes, but on a regular residential street it takes a 3 pointer.
Dunno for sure, but the wheelbase is the same for both so probably.
