Okay, how many of you knew that your rear spoiler had a brake light?

More correctly, it's from the Le Mans' starts and so the ignition is always opposite the shifter. This way the driver can be selecting the first gear while cranking on the ignition. For UK drivers, the key goes in to the right of the steering wheel.

In Europe, parking opportunities present themselves along narrow side roads whereby the Porsche parker needs to sometimes put their right wheels up onto the sidewalk, leaving the left side of the car exposed to traffic along the roadway.
Once the ignition is off and the key removed, you can push down your left turn signal (or right if that fits) and leave on just your left parking lights. They're low wattage and over time don't really drain the battery much. If you do this is America you are bound to confuse other Americans!

Cool, I've got to try that when I get home. Thanks.

Oh, the subject of the thread is new to me too. But can one really blame me for knowing more about the view from the inside than the view from the outside?

A while ago I was outside a restaurant waiting for a friend to join me for lunch and a brand new Cayman (still w/ dealer tags) parked just in front of me. The driver got out and was startled with a ringing tone from the car. She got in again, close the door fumbled with buttons and nothing... she pulled her cell and made a couple of calls (I later found out to ask for instructions to get rid of the tone). After a while she gave up. As she walked by I asked her if she had solved the problem - she said no. I introduced myself as a P-car fan and suggested to her to check the blinker position. She did and the tone went away...
