However, some of us do like to slide it

and if you do, the slide is very controllable.

I have a '10 S and I have to agree with you regarding the ride at cruising speed. Albeit, the ride is not bad at all, other cars I have owned and own are better in terms of overall noise level and comfort. However, none can compare to the what the Panny was made to do, and that is perform at high speeds with control. I researched a ton before I bought my S even between the two models S & 4S, (couldn't swing the extra chips for the Turbo

), and I'm very happy with my S. I do wish the backup camera was standard, because the 360 warning system I have now is just not the same. But as far as the drive, I live in a rural area where there are many open, windy roads where I can open up my Panny. I've gone 100+ mph, on these roads and it's such a pleasure to know the Panny is just laughing at me because it knows it can handle it. All this just with the stock setup. I'm thinking about getting the ECU flashed and adding a cold air intake, but I'm still doing research on this. I'm at 400 bhp and would like to get to 450 bhp, with some additional low end torque. But, trust me if I left it all as stock I'm cool with the performance. Even better when you do all of this with two sets of golf clubs in the back
