I use my radio to check traffic and weather only. I have never even tested the CD changer. Recorded music just seems to get in the way of the live performance.

Same here. The CD player in my Z4 was busy all the time. Since I got the seal grey 986er a month ago the engine does the music. I always loved the sound of this car!

good to see I am not alone, I haven't touched the CD changer and couldn't tell you how to program radio stations yet........ exhaust note bouncing off canyon walls is quite addictive

I never thought much of the Boxster until I test drove one... It was the SOUND of it that sold me. I'm dead serious. After revving past 4000 on the tach, I said to myself "The Boxster is my next car." It put to rest the debate of 3 Series/S2000/IS300, or any rear drive sporty car I was in the market for. I love a good ol' fashioned emotional purchase.

And if there are any lurkers reading this post thinking we've gone insane, GO DRIVE ONE.

And if there are any lurkers reading this post that have driven one and still think we're insane... try the Chrysler forums... I hear the new Sebring is gonna be super -and you deserve it.
