Can you imagine what would happen in the media if Porsche produced a modern car with the "character" (flaws) you desire? They would be crucified. You can't turn back time, and unlearn technology.

I'll drive one at some point, but from what I've read, the slight numbness doesn't detract from the driving pleasure. It should also free up some H.P. , though it is a shame to lose some feedback.
There are a few true sports cars left on the market. If Porsche made one in addition to the GTs, they'd be applauded for getting back to basics. But I agree that they can't go back with the current models. It's too bad though that they are moving both cars in the same direction at the same pace. Like I've mentioned before, Porsche no longer makes any cars that interest me. The best ones have already been made.
