Porsche quirks ...
I've noticed a few quirks over the years ...
964 aero mirrors being different side-by-side Turbo S side intakes being different side-by-side Etc. Well today I had a Pdr guy go over the car and fix all the little dings At least One in each panel :rolleyes: So I've just been going over the car and notice a boxster peculiarity :cool: The two side grills are different . The fan side is sunk in , and the air inlet is stuck out :D The Pdr guy did a fantastic job as usual . This is the 4th car he's done for me now , and to say Debbie is happy is an understatement . If anybody in Oc/la needs a dent guy I can highly recommend a good guy . ( doesnt charge p-car tax either ) ;) |
One sucks air, the other blows.

The #1 Porsche quirk has to be the ignition key on the left side.
Is it Saabs or Volvos that have the key down on the floor as a safety feature? Any other cars with ignition keys in odd places? I also think it's weird that Boxsters from 1997-2002 have no gloveboxes. And I will never understand how my 1999 Miata had a glass rear window, and my 2001 Boxster has a crummy vinyl one. I am really looking forward to changing the top to a glass window one, but I take too good care of the canvas...it'll probably last forever, ugh. |
Saab's had the key in the floor between the bucket seats.

An aftermarket roof mfg told me a glass window top weighs 10lbs. more... |

Tradition left over from the old " LeMans" starts. Drivers could start the car while shifting into gear simultaneously. |

Mine was 8lbs more... and I totally love it. Vinyl rear windows suck rocks. :D |

IMO, those glass window tops are hideous. They're way too small and look like they came off of a Miata! Ugly...not to mention that I don't need any more hassle with engine access. ;) |
