Sounds good I would keep checking with them for a build date though as I still think the car is at least 4 weeks away from being built. Earlier in the week I only met one owner with a completion date - towards the end of May, but this was a 2.7.
I willI think he already has me down as a customer from hell anyway!!!
PSE wasn't an option available when I ordered.
I use an iPhone which I understand doesn't support SIM Access Profile, a requirement for the Telephone PCM Module. Hands free Prep gives you blutooth (using the phones own antenna). Besides, I don't like using the phone whilst driving even when hands free .

Nice spec. You have PCM, so why not the telephone module for PCM. Sure your prep for mobile phone is not a mistake. You MIGHt lose some integration.
Such as?I was told I only need mobile phone prep too, ie Bluetooth.
The main point is that there is a specific Telephone Module for PCM. Why is this if the basic phone prep does exactly the same? The PCM one costs another £80. You have PCM, so why not get the option designed to work with it?
Personally I would not risk it. Get them to change it now especially if you have an IPhone.
Hope that helps !!

Please read my post above. I have had the basic phone Previn my old Cayman. I had PCM with the telephone module in my Spyder. Perfect integration with IPhone on the later and crap with the former.

So long as I can receive a call I'm happy with basic integration. I tend not to make many calls when on the move, and generally look to pull over to make a call (personal preference, and absolutely nothing to do about safety).So I'm happy to take the risk for now
If I the integration was far more important to me though, the advice you gave would have been extremely helpful. So thanks for that

There's an owners manual for the previous model Boxster here:

Anyone know if the owners manual for the new model is available anywhere yet, please?

For those going with the dual zone auto aircon, who like me were wondering if you would be able to lock the two temps together for adjusting, I understand that if you hold the auto button down it will switch in and out of "mono" mode. Useful when driving alone?
Cheers,
Geoff
I'll just get used to permanent 'mono' mode with my standard a/c Cheers,
Geoff

They will depreciate just like the previous model eg. 40-55% over 3 years depending on toys - maybe more.
I don't doubt it, hence I'm more interested in the monthly figure... The spec I want is £56k that's without sat nav can't bring myself to pay over £2k for sat nav that gets used once in a blue moon Gassing Station | Porsche General | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
