Locking question
Hi, everyone.
I sold my beloved 2005 Boxster in July, bought a BMW 335i and just could not live with it. Took a big financial hit, but last weekend bought my newest beloved: a 2007 Boxster, mostly plain with sound system plus, manual seats and such, in beautiful cobalt blue and sea blue interior. I LOVE it! But, believe it or not, it seems a bit different from the '05. One, it seems louder (love that!) and seems to ride a bit rougher (don't care), and I thought the Bose system in previous boxster wasn't too good, but now know it was much better than this one (still, no biggie). Ultimately - I love driving this car and my month and a half without it was ridiculous. Now, I do have a question. I seem to have automatic door locks (do not like this) and have to pull on door handle twice to get out. I pushed the locking button in the car (center of center console) and it won't seem to deactivate this. Is there some trick to just making the locks be un-automatic? Or, does a dealer have to do this? I bought the car in Florida, but live in SC, so don't want to take in the shop just yet if I can do this myself. Thanks for any help and any comments regarding differences in these models. I'm so glad to be back in a Boxster!! And especially cobalt. Oh - I will continue to search here, but if there is a way to get some bass or better sound from these speakers, I'd love to know how/who can do it. Not sure I could trust this car to some car audio places and I don't know what MOST is, but evidently that makes it difficult to upgrade the sound system. Ok - thanks in advance!

Dealer reprogram not to lock doors @ drive off.
More base =more power to push bigger cones which pushes more air. Not as straight forward with a MediaOrientedSystemTransport (fiber optic) system.
