Personally, I love air-cooled engines that let you hear the sound of the engine cylinders rubbing and the gurgling of oil circulating, much more than modern sports cars where exhaust noise is the main feature♡ Gurgling sound,...

Porsche Daytime Running Lights When I was watching the news about the Porsche Panamera accident on the Hanshin Expressway the other day, my husband said, This Panamera (970) seemed to be speeding, but I wonder if the lights were on. This model of Panamera was made before Japan’s DRL standards changed, so the headlights should come on automatically after driving above a certain speed for a while. Come to think of it, we once talked...

Investigating the Auto-Blipping Function on the Porsche Boxster (981 & 718)

Auto-Blipping on the Boxster The other day, while practicing driving the Boxster GTS (MT), I wrote that “it’s fun how the car automatically blips the throttle in Sport Plus mode when equipped with the Sport Chrono Package on a manual transmission.” After that, a reader commented: Does auto-blipping also work in Sport mode, not just Sport Plus?
