I drive a BRZ. It is a cheap, bargain basement sports car.
If you try to bring even one potato chip inside with you, you will be greeted by the sight of your own blood as it pours from behind your eyeball sockets.
Unless you’ve managed to make it inside my car. Because I don’t want any blood stains either.
.....Eating in the car...?
The IMS bearings fail when they dry up due to the cars not being driven and the oil isn’t circulating through. Please drive your car for it’s sake. Porsche’s love high miles and high RPMs, they aren’t meant to be garage queens.

In what universe are 911 motors unreliable? Because it sure isn’t this one. Expensive to maintain, sure.
My parents old e46 320d still does hit the advertised top speed with almost 320000km on the clock. It’s a bit less then this Porsches 240k miles, and a lot could go wrong in the next time, but it’s even on the first clutch and first turbo. Sometimes cars seem to hold themselves together exceptionally well.
TL;DR:
- 1st run: 235 WHP @ 6800 RPM
- 2nd run: 239.7 WHP @ 7000 RPM

This was something I had to teach my wife after we bought ours. Don’t short shift, Porsche motors like the high RPMs. That engine sound above 5k, HNNNNNGGGGGG!!!!!!!

I wonder if this means that there will be more tractor and farm vehicle reviews in Jalopnik’s future.
That shit eating grin smile on the mechanic’s face is gold.

I’m sorry, you’re gonna need to include the list of things you can’t eat in the new Camaro ZL1:
I get it. It’s funny because you imply that kale is edible.
