Still sorting the key issue out...
Latest loaner is a Boster S with a few toys, including the PDK transmission. A nice loaner by all accounts, but;
The Boxter really doesn't compare, does it?
Sure, it goes like hell, especially off the line with Chrono and launch, despite the 100hp less than my C2, I doubt it's slower.
It's certainly noisier though, harsher, cheaper feeling and, oh, did I say noisier?
I had a headache after only 20 minutes caning it's poor little arse off, and the fuel consumption was appalling under such use.
I miss the PASM equiped C2's better damping, beautifully quiet cabin, rear visibility and huge stability.
Not quite what I expected to be honest. The PDK I hate. It's fussy, unpredictable and despite the fact it offers maximum performance given the power, it's just not as refined as a well used manual.
Still great nevertheless, but it shows how easy to live with the 911 really is.... :thumbs:
