My 2001 S is stock and has little effort to move the clutch.

Its the lightest effort I've owned in any manual car.

Really the weight of my leg alone is almost enough to depress the clutch without much extra effort, but I do have muscular legs so others may find otherwise.

I suppose a real measurement to be able to compare would be to measure the force required with a weight scale.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Porsche techies know what that force should be.

Perhaps a dealer knows the answer or could find out.
