I feel the opposite. It’s a perfect invention for the highway. I even find myself using it in regular traffic as well; a touch of the autonomous.
However, they can keep the lane keep assist and all the other shit that physically adjusts your steering wheel. I can stay in the lane by myself...
Is the option worth the cost. I’m not too keen on paying $2000 extra to “get around the corners“ better. The car should be engineered to get around the corners as is.
Just seems gimmicky.
It would be nice if Porsche, in the middle of any given model’s lifecycle, directly asked owners… “What do you guys want out of this car?“
And then feed that into an AI algorithm… And then build that.
The result would be more of a car most drivers want, and less of a car with visor mirrors so...
Mechanical LSD. You mean the feeling of mechanical limited slip-diff?, which is technically more mechanical than PTV.
Seems like traction control is enough. Everything else is just added weight and trickery.
Yeah the fact that you have to pay thousands of dollars to get something as common place as smart cruise control is ridiculous. This is default on most $20,000 cars now and should be considered a standard safety feature.
I like those. I will say though there is a control for volume on the steering wheel, it feels a little cheap. They need to design a high-quality rubberized bezel that tracks smoothly the way traditional knob does. Especially if they’re going to have that is the main and only way to control volume.
That’s because of the nature of human imagination. We can’t see into the future, so it’s hard to predict what the design will be. Of course when it arrives, everyone’s bursting with opinions 🤷♂️

Next GEN’s are always just a couple of years after the midlife cars. And I wouldn’t say it’s a major refresh necessarily, considering it still has the same interior and overall original design.
Yeah Porsches have always had petite ergonomics. It’s cute/frustrating.
They didn’t update it because the interior is essentially the same. It is interesting that they forewent a new interior, which is typically introduced on midlife cars now.
