No doubt about it.
That's why I'm gonna get an older 911 to practice.

You just wait.

You touch on an important point I've been considering as well. Is it better to learn on an older (pre- PSM era) Porsche despite the fact that within a few years it is safe to say that all cars will have some form of ESP? To stretch the analogy further, I don't see anyone practicing with 60's vintage cars based on the argument that it will make them better drivers of later versions. I believe the theory that there is plenty to learn driving cars without "electronic oversight" but in the end will it make a big difference to someone driving a newer car provided they are serious about technique and listen to instruction?
