If you just charge hard into a corner without slowing down, sure, the car will understeer. Through transitions (like a slalom) the back end will stay pretty planted if you are on the power. Start lifting off the throttle and the car can get loose in a hurry.
It really comes down to the driver, but the car does not have what I would describe as a lot of built-in understeer.

Wow, a great summary John. I just learned an awful lot. Thanks.
