That's simply not true.

I own one.

Took it to a Porsche Club Drivers Skills event. Skid pad, accident avoidance, autocross, etc.

Tried to get it to misbehave. Couldn't.

My guess is that since you sit in the rear, engine in the front, it's actually a very good weight distribution. Total contact patches front and rear seem to be about the same. Very neutral handling....and a hoot to drive.

close, they keep positive pressure on the differentials to prevent water entering the axles
