I was at a local Porsche dealership event showcasing the new 2017 911's. Below are pictures of a 911 in Lava Orange, a $3140 paint option. Pretty bold color for one who wants the attention. I'm highlighting this car because the new 2017 911's come with th...  

how its exhaust sound - It is really quite dull compared to lesser beasts even w/o mods.

The greatest shortcoming of an electric car is the total lack of sound -- if you don\'t count the faint, high-pitched whine that\'s really only audible when the driver\'s window is open and you are next to a curb. No pipes at all! ...  

Silence in our hectic world is a thing to cherish. Especially while doing 0 - 100 km/u in 3,2 sec ;-)

Our world is loud enough - take a moment to imagine how much more pleasant our cities and lives would be without the noises of loud buses, trucks, cars and motorcycles - not to mention all the heat and the exhaust fumes on the streets. Best E.

With a little but, that somebody apparently implanted a crazy gene into me when I must have been a baby: It must not be loud, but a good sound of an engine and exhaust can make me smile. Not to mention acceleration. And everyday, I use an electric bus, tr... 

...I am a car guy at heart after all! There\'s just a greater good from silent running in cities - and as you say even electric cars, trams etc make some noise. Now, out on the open road...hmmm...well sometimes when I\'m in the countryside I want no noise... 

Just today I ordered Akrapovič exhaust system in titanium for my 911 GTS. That was more than double. But this system gives a few additional HP, some additional torque and a lot of sound ! The last one is important. Best, Kari

An average fast car is for me enjoyment when the roads are basically empty. Best Kari

I used to be an absolute petrolhead when I lived in the west. But now I have come to the view that it\'s much more relaxing to be driven. No, I don\'t have a driver as some friends do; considered it but it just seemed daft, as I have a short commute and i... 

Finland has the lowest population density in Europe - 339,000 square km and 5.5 million people. Estonianis not much worse. We have homes in the capitals of both countries. Then we have the second home (third) in Lapland and there are just reindeer, bear, ... 

when it is impossible to utilize (legally) the output. But I enjoy things like driving characteristics, sounds, acceleration... I must be still a bit childish. Best Kari

Otherwise 1 watch would do.

than would be insane! Kari

Gives ease of mind. I wish I had it...

Best, Kari

And I\'m guessing that he mood in a GTS is pretty damn good

is among the best things a man can do having his pants on! Best, Kari

Enjoy!!

or? Best, Kari

Makes me think of the spoof Volkswagen ad from about a decade ago...if you don't know it, a quick YouTube search will help... Best E.

That puts things into perspective! If I were living there I too would surely have cars - more than one. My current car-less state is really down to living in one of the densest places on the planet! Best E.

the roads are in great condition, fast to drive and the scenery is stunning. But it can happen that in one hour I do not see another car - just lots of reindeer walking stupidly in the middle of the road. Good brakes are needed! Kari

the car a bit aggressive and also loud. There are faster cars but the driving characteristics of Porsche are outstanding. Best, Kari

or the new NSX....the i8 may not make the cut )

That explains Porsche, BMW, Ferrari. And Patek. Kari

Rice Krispies and sports exhausts on cars have something in common... They both have Snap, Crackle, and Pop. Thanks for sharing Anthony! How's the Maserati?
