Normal driving my radio stays on 98.9 The Rock here in Kansas City, but when I'm hitting my favorite twisties, radio goes off.

"Sand dance" by temples

"Into the void" by nine inch nails (you have to have some period music!)

edIT
Jega
Infected Mushroom
Glitch Mob
Boreta
Kraddy
Mochipet
Matty G
Ooah

I know I'm strange

Nothing quite like 70's hard rock

Anything like this for cruising around, although the flat 6 symphony rocks it out really nice in the twisties.

I was 10 when this was released.

Let the 80's role IMO. A little Bryan Adams Summer of 69 followed by some Huey Lewis. Anything harder seems to make the car go too fast - those songs seem to sing nicely within legal speed limits!

With the top up/commuting, I end up listening to podcasts.

Top down is another story all together....

Oingo Boingo
Offspring
Police
Beatles
The Clash
Guns and Roses
Nine Inch Nails
Led Zepplin
Beach Boys
The Cure
Just about anything "alternative" from the 80's

Haven't had my car for that long. But, so far it's "Johnny Guitar", From Johnny Winter's "Hey, Where's Your Brother?" album. Tends to make you pick up speed.

On the rare occasion I want to listen to music in a Boxster, I have a few depending on my mood:

Get It To Go (Maynard Ferguson)
I'm Gonna Live Til I Die (Frank Sinatra version)
William Tell Overture (Gioachino Rossini)
Clutch (The Seatbelts)
Tunak Tunak Tun (Daler Mehndi)
Guitar Boogie (Tommy Emmanuel)
Midnight Blue (Kenny Burrell)
LaGrange (ZZ Top)
Take Your Love And Shove It Up Your Big Fat Ass! (Joe Pesci)

I either end up tuning out the music or have nothing but the engine revs
