PSM = Phun Stopping Mechanism ?

Seriously. That PSM thing ruins my day. I ALWAYS forget to shut it off as soon as I fire up the engine, end up getting nose dived into a fast turn, then repeatedly slap my forehead while looking around to be sure nobody saw my embarrasing Tom Foolery.

I'm sure it is very helpful, and grand for safety, rain, sleet, snow, hail, small asteroids, but, boy oh boy does it take the phun out of driving.

Granted, I always take off fast, always take corners in a "spirited" way because I and the car can take it (when no one else is nearby posing a threat), but it's like it kicks me in the nads every time it kicks in.

Am I alone here? Maybe mine sucks, or is broken, feels like it kills the engine and maybe applies lots of break to the outside wheel on turns where something it breaking loose. I much prefer it OFF, and doing the break loose thing which is always controlled in my hands. The thing lets loose, and then softly reconnects like melted butter! Love the Boxster, hate the PSM!!!!!
