Hi everyone. I just put a down payment on a '99 boxster with low miles (48k). I test drove it and ran nice and had great handling. However, the throttle pedal was strange. The pedal felt normal for the first 1/3 of the range then it was very stiff for the rest of the range. It seemed to go to Wide open but I had had to press quite hard. After thinking it over I thought there must be something wrong with. It was just to stiff for comfort.

Anyone have any thoughts on this accel pedal situation. Is this normal?

Thanks
