My nissan Stanza has power assist and the road feed back is very good. I
tried a non-power assist Stanza and it was very diffcult to turn the car at low
speeds (I used to drive a manual Duster and so was used to a manual steering).
I have a feeling that the stanza's steering was built for power assist.
On the other hand my sister's Accord has power-assist but the feed back is
not as good  - I prefer Accords with manual steering.
	I don't think it is possible to make a general statement like 
"on front wheel cars power steering is not needed"; it depends very much
on the car.
