I was pouring through the neglected bills last night and came upon this letter:
"Re: Danger of Fire in Engine Compartment.
It has to Porsche's attention that there has been a small number of incidents of avoidable engine fire caused by Boxster drivers dropping lit cigarettes out of the car while driving. There cigarettes has, on some ocassions, been sucked into the drivers side engine air intake and, under certain conditions, can start an engine fire."
(yadda yadda yadda)
"For those of you who smoke, it is worth reminding yourself that dropping a cigarette out of your car is an unsafe practice."
(yadda yadda yadda)
Sincerly,
(some smoe Service Manager)
I wonder who was the first candidate to discover this - looking in the rear view to see what was the engine compartment now a 93 octane fed camp fire. Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire! ;)
So if you wanna have some fun with Boxster owners, get in front of them on the freeway and start tossing lit cigarettes out your drivers side window - watch 'em swerve all over the place ;)
