Whilst I prefer the SSW, that's the best MF SW I've seen so far...
The carbon bits looks rather good. Gives the cabin a quality lookI'm guessing the MF wheel controls the multi function display without the extra lever below the wiper switch. Gets a bit cluttered around the steering wheel with all these controls

Good point. I am just starting to get used to the controls given that two are for the phone, one is for volume, another takes you to your home screen on the MF screen next to the speedometer, and the other control is for scrolling and selecting that same MF screen rather than the main screen on the centre console. I presume the idea is that it limits the need to glance down at the main console screen. I'm guessing the MF wheel controls the multi function display without the extra lever below the wiper switch.

I am very focused on performances and lightweight, so everything not strictly required is out for me.
but parking sensors, Sat Nav, smoke pack are what you need.
er !!! lol I can see why that got comments off others ;-)but parking sensors, Sat Nav, smoke pack are what you need.
but as above no spec is right, you buy what you want even if does mean you tick the PDK option ;-)
The way around indeed....

Yep, with the sports wheel you get the paddles obviously, then the stalks for wipers and indicators. There's another stalk for the mf screen, another for cruise and I think another for voice control (I don't have that one). BGHughes said:

I DO like the new screen. Being able to configure a couple of items for some screens is a nice bonus, as is being able to hide some that you don't need. BGHughes said:

Voice control is a small button at the end of the stalk. I've got that but not used it yet, money well spent lolRBT0 said:
Gents, what should I expect from my OPC now that build date has been passed?
Any tracking system, car health check, reports, friendly call, etc..?
I would like to understand how my salesman is performing, I haven't got any previous experience on Porsche dealers/OPC.
Thanks in advance
Mine was supposed to be delivered in 11 weeks and took 17. As I was promised 11 and was never given an explanation (even after 17 weeks) after 2 weeks late I made a fuss. The OPC had lured me from another dealer with the undertaking of 11 week delivery. The end result was a discount. I would rather have had the timely delivery. At 11 weeks I would have Sept and Oct sun. Nov was delivery. Not great for a Boxster. I was getting no traction with my salesman so went up the chain. I recommend doing that if your salesman cannot give you, in this order (of occurrence) build date, completion date, leave factory date, arrive at German docks date then arrival at UK docks. I got vagueness and excuses so escalated things. I hope your delay is a minor blip. Good luck!Any tracking system, car health check, reports, friendly call, etc..?
