Love it, but surely, the lack of an LSD would mean that there might actually be such a thing as 'too-much-power' ???

I would have thought so too but don't know enough about chassis design, earlier in the year I drove Elises and Exiges at Lotus, I made comments on the lack of LSD fitted to the Lotus engineers present and they seem to think an lsd compromised the handling on a mid engined car, such that if anyone ordered one from the extras list...the factory would go back to the dealer to ask if the customer was sure.

I appreciate it was at Lotus and not Porsche, but was making the assumption that characteristics of mid engined cars are probably similar.
