Don't buy a 981 Boxster with PDK if low RPMs bother you
. It will run around at 43mph (69kph) in 7th gear! Mine is a 2.7L engine Base 981.
So the question is does this really hurt the engines and is Porsche more concerned about mpg or how long the engine will last. Well I know the 986 has the IMS and they clearly weren't worried about that
.
