Re: WTF?! porsche vs pheasant

SQUAWK!!!


Only the guy that gets paid to put in the windshield and/or clean up pheasant guts wins.

Everyone else loses; it's like a Greek tragedy:
Pheasant dies, but kills windshield.
Windshield knows pheasant coming to kill it, so kills it back.
Owner spattered by debris from kill scene, has to pay $$ for at least clean up.
Seats will never be the same.

Oh yeah, and the owner is a LOSER prior to the accident, for the above mentioned reason of an automatic transmission. Pah.

Re: WTF?! porsche vs pheasant

Tiptronic®
The tiptronic, which is available with five or six speeds, has all the advantages and technical features (Dynamic Shift Program (DSP), key lock, shift lock) of the automatic transmission. All gear changes take place without any interruption in engine power. This is particularly advantageous when towing a trailer. tiptronic allows the driver to override the automatic mode by moving the lever into a second (tiptronic) shift gate and permits, for example, downshifting on winding mountain roads to increase the braking effect of the engine or for a particularly sporty driving style. The six-speed tiptronic has wider transmission spacing, thus reducing fuel consumption and the noise level and increasing ride comfort. On all models it has an additional Sport program which delays upshifts for a sportier driving style. Shift quality has been further improved thanks to electronics integrated directly into the transmission.

It's still an automatic slushbox with a torque converter, so for all intents and purposes it's an automatice Porsche. Nothing like SMG or DSG, which actually use a clutch (or 2 in the case of DSG).

Re: WTF?! porsche vs pheasant

It'd be way funnier if it was porsche vs. peasant, which is what I see every time I glance at the thread title.

Re: WTF?! porsche vs pheasant

Got a lot of those pheasants around here. Guess I need to be more careful.

BTW that is the first new boxster I have seen outside of porsche ads.

How could you not know that tiptronic is an automatic transmission?

Re: WTF?! porsche vs pheasant

Actually on myth busters they did something like that against a windsheild and it didnt take much...I think it was like 40-50mph and it tore through the window really easy
