When I have instructed in a modern car, I count how many times "it" takes over.

Then I ask the driver for his count, since they own a high buck Por$che guess what the answer is?

BTW, "hey" is the first step of B.S.
That is great-and true! Even though I drive a Cayman all the driving aids (except ABS) are defeated. Sure saves on rear brake pad wear. Interestingly, many of my friends have traded late model Turbos and GT3s for early 911 race cars. They are going a little slower but having more fun.
