Sadly, after the testdrive I did have again a headache ; it was not severe , but it was there. Can this be because of the noise of the engine or because of the bumpy character of driving this car with 19 inch wheels = very thin tires ? Please, if you own a boxter 987, share your experiences if you did suffer headaches because of this car or not ...
I've driven many hours in my car with the top up (sad fact of life living in Toronto) with no headaches (other than those caused by the drivers around me). I've smelled no exhaust gasses or anything other than 'new car smell'. I even had the car at a track for a day of very hard driving and the only thing I could smell was rubber -- and that was after all the cars were parked in the pit. I've got 18" wheels so I'm not sure about what things would feel like with 19" ones.
