It is amazing. All the standard handling that you get with a mid-engine Boxster, but now you have the power to pull out of corners or kick the backend out. Yes, you can now get yourself in a LOT of trouble, so throttle management will be key. And shifts come a lot quicker :-)
While I don't have this (yet), I have ridden in Scott's car in a spirited drive around Las Vegas...
