In order to fully appreciate anything, learning the intricacies from an expert is always the best way to go. Imagine learning how to experience wine tasting from a true connoisseur. Being able to distinguish the nuances between particularly good and truly exceptional, brings a sense of accomplishment and joy to the experience.

The automotive equivalent is the demonstration ride. Forget acquired habits of entering, adjusting, and driving off. There is a preferred driving position affording better vehicle control, more comfort, and the ability to discern the relationship between tires and the road’s surface which is transmitted to the passenger compartment via Porsche’s central nervous system. Driving a performance vehicle does not require super-sonic speeds to appreciate its virtues.

This experience is best understood at slower not higher speeds. Pushing the limits changes the environment from that of learning to that of surviving. The demonstration should always be a learning experience. Going fast is neither impressive, nor experiential. In most urban environments, it is just dangerous. Savor the demonstration and learn how Porsche engineers have fine tuned their vehicles to deliver the best possible driving experience.
