I sold my 911T because of the noise level in the cabin. I recorded 105 db at 70 mph. Hearing protection would be required where I work. Im hopping the boxster is significantly improved.
That is a Porsche...

Some of us still believe that Porsches don't have radiators, power brakes, heated seats, or a heater or air conditioning system that functions worth a damn.

My daily driver is a 1976 Porsche 912E, it has no radiator, No IMS bearing, no A/C and no creature comforts at all.. It is raw Porsche.

All my modern Porsches are secondary vehicles and I'd rather drive the 912E over any of them, because I appreciate raw Porsche that much.. I accumulated 160K miles on that car in 8 years and never did anything to it, just replaced the alternator in that period of time.

When doing our develomental M96 work I drive the modern cars more than I want to.. They are great cars, but to me its just not the same and it never will be.

Like I said, knowing about these issues is imperative. Beter to be informed than ignorant.
