With the 997 and 987 Boxster and Cayman now being part of the Porsche Classic Register, we are holding a Zoom presentation on Tuesday 7 February at 7pm live from Porsche Centre Leeds to discuss this further and to present the benefits this may offer our members. This is open to all, but is specific to 997 owners, as well as 987 Boxsters and 987 Caymans, and we have a technical talk looking at both a 997 and 987 car on the ramp with a technician talking us through items to look out for.
One of the key benefits to Porsche Classic is the development of the revised infotainment system, and this is now available for first generation 997 and 987 cars (2005 – 2008). Among other features, these retrofitted devices enable the use of Apple CarPlay (from iPhone 5) and Android Auto™ for media playback, navigation and for making phone calls, but still retaining the benefits of Chrono and other Porsche options, whilst retaining the standard look. Hopefully we should have one of these in a car to discuss as well.
