Bose in a cabriolet

[jonathanw]

I have just sold my 2002 cabriolet which had the standard sound system. Generally when driving topless I like to enjoy the engine/exhaust sound rather than listen to the radio. However on long trips ie to France etc I have music on.

I have an new 997 cab due in April and am debating about whether a Bose sustem is worth the extra expense given that the new car has as standard a better system than the 996 .

The bumpf states that the Bose has "noise cancelling" properties" etc etc. I obviously cannot test either system as there are no cabs until April.

Can anybody advise or comment.

Many thanks

Jonathan

Got it in mine and it's well worth the money.

The only thing i notice in mine is the extra bass.

The overall quality isn't anything amazing IMHO

It may be cheaper/better doing some after market upgrades, once
you've heard the standard system, then you can make up your mind then ?
