I think it won’t be the most fun car ever in heavy traffic, but not so bad.
The 997RS had a light single-mass flywheel and a Really heavy clutch. At least the clutch will be light with the S/T. Just a little noisy with SMF and you have to keep revs slightly higher pulling away. I think it’ll be quite civilized and not a problem.

I must be getting old and cantankerous but I even hate a RR in traffic these days. Bring on fully autonomous vehicles for any actual transportation with any actual traffic!
I hope the lwfw makes it a hair difficult

Horrible cars, nobody wants them. And they look funny.
EV life for the daily. My stress level in traffic even w/o fully auto driving is near zero. Just glide along... in near silence.

this is a nice car
comfy like caddy
it is not raw
when I reeled in a straddle in my 356 or cures the bumper odd gt3 in my 914/6 now that’s raw.

Have you ever driven a 356, 914, 964, or a 993? Now those cars are analog, raw, and old school. I would never own any of those cars because they are too old for me but there's HUGE difference between driving a 992 Touring and a 997RS. Porsche putting a lwfw and taking away the RAS doesn't make the ST remotely close to being analog, raw, or old school, it's just a different iteration of a 911 for the 992 series.
