The AC is exceptional if you live in Central Texas. My wife says it is easily the best of our four cars.

The hammer then came down and the 964 gen 911 was launched as a mobile meat locker. No more complaints about the A/C.
I remember a story like that about BMW. Engineers in Germany kept ignoring complaints from US customers (and begging from US dealers). Then a pair of German engineers arrived in the states, and a US rep met them in Houston. After driving around for a while the sweaty engineers finally understood.
