Sorry, off topic but..........Yes, i'm glad someone else said it. Admit it, a lot of you were thinking it! Probably worse, but didn't put it on screen. It just shows what a classy bunch this is.

I called the dealership and they confirmed that the sound I hear is normal. The guy I talked to said he was not positive, but he thought that the 987 may only have one fan in the front on the passenger side and no fan on the driver side. Can anyone confirm? I have never heard a fan on the drivers side.

Nope, there's a radiator on both sides in the 987 too. See parts diagram below. Each part, for example, part 1 is a radiator... there's a part 1 and part (1) in parenthesis. This means there's a left and right. When the fans come on (part 2) in the diagram, both sides should come on at the same time. You can test this easily by just turning on your a/c. When the a/c is on, both fans should be running.
