"...we drove one each of those old 911s and would have to take the stability and quickness of this new car over the old warriors."

yeah i know what you mean but as the say:

"Purists will decry the new 911 and say it's numb, others will like the sophisticated chassis and suspension that filters out noise vibration and harshness that you don't need. Big bumps, such as potholes, don't get through the steering column to your hands. Smaller ripples do."

i think it will be the most responsive electro-mechanical steering system on the market but u can`t deny that it will not be as responsive as the hydraulic systems, that have been used before.
i guess you can`t have it all!

I'm ok with it as long as a lot of this stuff does NOT make it into the GT cars.
