Change History

I remember when I hit break-in mileage in my Boxster and wound out the engine past 4,000 RPMs. That howl was amazing. Loved to do it to unsuspecting passengers. Something about working those gears in "underpowered" cars at times is more joy than more powerful cars where you can be lazy and use mainly the left right peddle. That being said, was in heavy stop-and-go traffic for a good three hours in my '09 997S when I hit an open exit that happened to be about a half mile straight. Dropped it a gear and sunk into the seat as took it to almost redline. Not nearly the same sound without an air intake so close to the cabin, but still a fun way to work off the frustration of the trip.
