Yeah, sure it was. Haha!
Sorry pal, I don't believe it for a second. Not on a $50,000 car. No way.
It being written up in a book (a quick Google about the book suggests that the Boxster was not part of the vehicles covered, but I have not confirmed this.) doesn't make it true.

And you throw down subjective things, like what sounds good, as if it's fact. I get it, I do the same thing! Haha
but, you have to realize, that what sounds good inside a car, is subjective. It is not something that the Porsche engineers have the final say on.
