And it is exactly there, where you get the strong conviction what needs to be improved.
I am even willing to tune the DME now, after a SKODA octavia combi RS gave me a hard time passing him...A FAMILY CAR.
At 250km/h even my old 2.7l passes most other (newer & more powerful) cars...as they are restricted to 250km/h max...but not Porsche

I am ok...i am ok...oh man it was a nightmare

If we didn't want to drive them fast, we wouldn't have bought Porsches!

My favorite moments are when the PDK is cruising in 7th (some kind of gas saving thing, I think) around 40mph. Then I lift the foot off and stomp it back down. The PDK responds in a nanosecond and downshifts to 3rd, and I'm quickly at 70 mph, then 80, then 90, in 4th gear. Considering I've got 3 more gears to go, I'm not gutsy enough to top it out.

I consider it a good drive when I've scared myself a little.

Hubs loves to run the PDK in manual mode, so it's more like his 911. These cars have some amazing torque.

Honestly, I think the PDK, in manual mode, is a little quicker than a standard manual. Yup. You heard me . . .

Yup and it gets better gas mileage. Unfortunately for me the PDK offers fewer smiles per mile.
