When I asked, \u201cUp to what RPM do you have to pull it to get that effect? Do you have to really rev it high?\u201d he said,<\/p>\n
No, you can do it from around 2000 RPM and above<\/strong>. At 1000 RPM, the computer doesn\u2019t seem to adjust the revs. So even when accelerating around town, you can hear that \u201cwhoosh\u201d sound when shifting up. Before, I thought, \u201cTo really enjoy the GT3 engine sound, you have to rev it up to 4000 RPM\u2026 but there\u2019s rarely a chance to do that normally<\/strong>,\u201d but now I\u2019ve found a way to fully enjoy the GT3 even in everyday driving without having to do that.<\/p>\n He said.<\/p>\n With the Boxster, shifting up without lifting off the throttle causes trouble, but the late 911 GT3 manual has a unique way of operating<\/strong>. When I asked, \u201cSo that means the Boxster matches revs with auto-blip on downshifts, right? That feels amazing, so is this like the shift-up version of that?\u201d my husband replied,<\/p>\n Exactly, that\u2019s exactly it! It feels incredible. It\u2019s like being a human PDK!<\/p>\n He said.<\/p>\n My husband said thoughtfully,<\/p>\n But I wonder if even dealer salespeople don\u2019t really know this kind of thing. There aren\u2019t many chances to drive a GT3<\/strong>, after all. Even among owners, few probably read the manual for the GT3. So there might be people driving it without knowing this. I think there are quite a few things you only notice after driving for a long time.<\/p>\n And that\u2019s certainly true.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve also learned many things only after driving the Panamera or Boxster, or by talking with other owners about things I never noticed before<\/strong>. For example, these might be trivial details, but\u2026<\/p>\n \u30fbThe 981 Boxster\u2019s manual activates auto-blip in Sport Plus mode, but the 718 activates auto-blip starting from Sport mode<\/strong>. And so on. These are things you only find out by actually driving.<\/p>\n At the Royu Driveway, where car enthusiasts exchange information almost every week, the value surely lies in sharing information that only owners can know\u2014things you won\u2019t find in catalogs or test drive reviews on automotive sites<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Even after all this time driving, I\u2019m sure there are still features I don\u2019t know about. Maybe I should read the manual thoroughly once again (laughs).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shift-Up Operation for the GT3 My husband came home the other day after driving the GT3 as usual, and he said something really interesting.

\n\u30fbFor our Panamera Turbo, we set the individual mode to deploy the rear spoiler, but when we arrive home, stop the car, and switch individual mode back to normal mode, the rear spoiler doesn\u2019t retract. It only retracts if you switch modes while driving.
\n\u30fbThe 911 (991.2) manual doesn\u2019t require lifting off the throttle when shifting up.
\n\u30fbThe 911 (991.2) manual won\u2019t automatically restart the engine if you stall; you have to turn the engine off and on again even if you press the clutch and brake. (The 981 Boxster restarts automatically.)<\/span>
\n\u30fbWhen starting on a hill with a manual, auto-hold works on some slopes but not on others (very gentle slopes)<\/span>, so it\u2019s best to check the display before moving.
\n\u30fb(Only speaking about the Panamera here)<\/span> Without the sport exhaust option, the sound difference between normal mode and sport\/sport plus modes is barely noticeable.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1398-1280x854.jpg\")
