Porsche 996 cup holders

A former worker of Porsche Cars North America is using questions these days in a Reddit " is responding to a number of questions in the innerworkings of the sports vehicle maker from Stuttgart, and there have been some that caught our eye.

First off, just therefore we own it in writing once more, it is pronounced Poor-sha, perhaps not Porsh:

The family constantly utilized two syllables for his or her title.

Secondly, Porsche staff members do get a pretty great rebate on cars:

It absolutely was dependent up on your level but at the time it had been a flat discount off the MSRP maxed never to trigger tax plus a monthly subsidy on your own rent. All informed I was having to pay only over 200 monthly while I worked here. Whenever I stop I experienced to purchase out of the lease to help keep the car. I took a 5 year loan and paid $535 monthly to keep it.

But what truly caught our attention ended up being how PCNA dictated cupholder design after the 996 generation 911 and 986 Boxster had been loaded with pretty useless people:

Cupholders had been introduced when you look at the 996 and 986 versions in the belated 90's. They simply did not obtain it as you are not expected to drink when you are operating. The initial cupholders sucked also. Once they had been creating the Cayenne we built-up a huge amount of cups from fast food and filling stations plus coffee cups and mailed all of them to Germany and stated your holders need to deal with most of these.
