MIKE METTLER: What kind of car do you have?

TRENT REZNOR: I have a dark green Porsche 911. I got the last
air-cooled one, a '97. That replaced a wide-bodied '94 I had. This one's a
convertible. The problem with the 911 is that there's no room to put anything in it. The back seat has been replaced with a big fiberglass subwoofer. It's either a 15- or 18-inch sub; I don't recall who makes it. But I'm not really losing any space there because no human can sit in the back seat, anyway. Luckily I'm not that tall, because I can't put my seat back any further.

METTLER: What other gear did you put in the Porsche?

REZNOR: Whatever the newest Alpine head is, with a six-disc changer.
The shop that did the work is Mobile One in New Orleans. All of the amps are under a grille in the front trunk with a Nine Inch Nails logo that I didn't
ask for, but it's kind of cool. [laughs].

METTLER: What are your favorite cruising tunes?

REZNOR: My mainstays: Roni Size & Reprazent, A Tribe Called Quest for
those Sundays with the top down, and the latest Cult album, Beyond Good and Evil. I drive around to get out of the studio every once in a while.

METTLER: Which places do you like to cruise to?

REZNOR: I'm not far from Audubon Park, so I'll go there just to get
out and see human beings, I'll hit that, or I'll go to Jean Lafitte Park [on
Canal Street], which is just a half hour from here. It's a straight stretch
of highway, so if you take your chances, you can open things up.
