tbh I don't really plan on driving at 130+ too often.. if much at all... especially on the street.
Maybe try to hit the top speed in the car once or so, but that'll be about it...
btw, some of us don't want the 3rd pedals because he/she may A) get tired, B) legs hurt C) injuries D) laziness E) lack of skill/ability F) wanting smooth shifts 100% of the times G) etc
I am A D F :P
Having driven the Boxster and the 996 T manual for about a year each... I realized spending a hours in traffic just doesn't make it worth it.
Now.. if it was a weekend car... that'd be a different story
But hard to afford a weekend car and a nice daily these days
