Agree, its really noticeable while parking and maneuvering at slow speeds and I think it is part of the reason the car turns in so well at higher speeds and feel so planted in turns. Its fantastic that a car this large is so nimble and responsive.

In Porsche's case, and probably most manufacturers, that's why the install it, to improve handling on high speed bends/corners, rather than to help parking (which is a bonus).

On a Bluebonnets run last week, we had to make a U turn, my Panamera made it in one swing, the 911’s had to back up a bit to make the turn. When all the way to lock turn I’m not a fan of the front wheels scrubbing when on dirty pavement, but love the car seemingly acts like a much smaller vehicle.
