    I'll see if I can capture it as I'm sure it's an audible difference on mine, also the display indicates and increase in exhaust noise when you select track in driver mode it goes from 2 to 3 bars on the display for exhaust

    So another 50 mls with my mate running his m3 touring in this morning. A few mind dumps. Niggles: The Throttle pedal has a curiously long travel reminiscent of my old TVR tuscan Skipping the music track on the center screen seems hit and miss, can't skip it from the wheel unless it's on the...

    First Editions Options vs Base Spec - What options do you consider essential?

    Guess it would depend on the individual, I've got my FE and there's nothing I'm thinking I wouldn't want 😄

    So just had a 50 mile blast, mostly in sport/track, 6deg, mix of dry and damp roads. Some quick take aways. The steering is so alive it actually takes a bit of getting used to. Noise in track adds a good bit of theater, I'm running in but still feels special Gear box takes a bit of...

    First Editions Options vs Base Spec - What options do you consider essential?

    On an emira? You wouldn't want any of the driver goodies? Sport diff, driver modes etc? Think that would be a hard car to sell on

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    That will be a nice car but my experience with buying new high spec porsches is you will take a beating when you come out of it Although current market/world who really knows!

    First Editions Options vs Base Spec - What options do you consider essential?

    I can't help thinking that most base models will end up, especially with the price rises, the same money as the original fe price just with less spec That said there's hardly any buttons in the car to blank and you could easily spend £60k plus on a cayman with no sport mode let alone no track...

    Privacy glass

    I don't completely disagree but the sides are also angle dependent, it's only really obvious when you're square side on and looking through the car. Again look at my picture above, do the rear sides look any different to the fronts? As I say though I do get what you mean.

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    I love throttle House reviews, watch them all the time on the turbo (indoor bike) and that's a great review for the car, hopefully more of these sorts of reviews when production cars hit the media more

    So here's a quick thought, transmission noise, it was quite prominent to the point of unpleasant crawling around in the demo in low gears. Not uncommon from the evora I believe. Its just occurred to me there's next to nothing In mine, wonder if it will develop over time ?

    Factory collection today which was brilliant and I'd recommend. So quick background I've just come out of a 981 gt4, last two cars before that were a Ferrari california and a 997 gts. Now, I've only done 130miles in the Emira but to be honest I'm struggling to fault it, all those things...
