Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Nightly spirited drives on twisty 2 lane roads, rarely above 3rd gear, followed by a run thru the gears on an almost always empty long stretch of highway.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

For 41 years i drove cars one way, then i started driving a 996 4s....what a life altering experience! Nightly spirited drives on twisty 2 lane roads, rarely above 3rd gear, followed by a run thru the gears on an almost always empty long stretch of highway. Rain or shine, i dont care.

POST 3Original post

I did the exact same a couple years ago (bought a c4s at 41). But I�ve always driven like a 15yr old, I�m just a lot more dangerous meow...enjoy

POST 4Original post

There is a switch that can get flipped when you find yourself in a car that has capabilities that exceed your own. Since it seems to have flipped, I suggest finding some high-performance driver training if you have not already. I admit that it sounds douchy, but the confidence you get from knowing what the car feels like when it starts to rotate, having practiced the limits of grip when you must choose braking or steering because you can't have both, and knowing just how fast your car will "snap" once the rear end breaks free (spoiler: not nearly as fast as the hysterical Internet thinks) is immeasurable.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
