Just back from my first road trip in my '02 986S

Damn Porsche econobox

I've done a few longer drives and don't find the seats to be that bad
Yea, ya gotta drop to 3rd @ 50 for high speed passing. Nice that 3rd is good to high 90's though. Once you get it to 5k, its a mini rocket

I think the seats are great, I am average height & weight which i assume is the design benchmark. I once drove my Box for 24 hours with 2 hours of breaks mixed in.


I think further from home than the Mini is the Honda Pilot in front of it, manufacturers plates means it's from SoCA.

Big difference in passing time when a Box is fully loaded.
