    what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    LED lights in the back?
    swiveling litronic/xenon lights?
    Heads up display (BMW M5 and Five series?)
    night radar? (or woudl this add too much weight)
    more aluminum/titanium parts?

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    active cruise control (using radar to follow vehicle in front - from new S-class)

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    Hey Sirrus or XM radio would be nice.

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    Ipod Connectivity!!!

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    Bluetooth!

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    Happy New Year!

    After long and slightly drunken discussions with my friends, I think the next 911 should have Kitt from Knight Rider as an option.

    And possibly the walkie-talkie watch.

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    ...the efficient DRS instead of Tiptronic !

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    a device that flips over your plate number.

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    - PDC both in the front and at the rear?
    - Electrical folding mirrors?
    - key-less go?
    - start car with a button?
    - more enhanced damper settings than sport/normal in the pasm... A la ferrari (snow, ice, race, normal, etc)


    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    My wish list would include OWNER friendly software so I can connect my laptop and see what's going on.


    Would be especially nice to see motronics settings indicating I'm getting the premium gas I'm paying for.

    Absolutely! Even to observe (but not touch) the settings would be great. See what exactly PASM thinks it's playing at, look at the Bose settings, perhaps a fuel consumption vs time graph... Or indeed fuel grade indicators like you say MMD.

    On the basic trip computer side of things, I think it's really off that you don't get things like journey time elapsed - I used to have that on my old Golf for heavens sake. That'd be an easy software upgrade. How about it Porsche? Not everyone opts for PCM.

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    AUX IN.

    Journey time elapsed is already there.

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    more airbags and a MBZ pre-safe type system?

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    Some kind of new spare tire technology that does not take much space , there have been no real advances in this area so the spare was just eliminated , many would like an alternative . The thought of being out in the middle of nowhere at night on a long road trip with a flat and no spare creates stress that takes a little fun out of the driving experence .

    Re: what new technologies can we expect on the 997?

    they should download the entire manual into PCM, then hv a good/intuitive interface for searches & adjustments.

    but b/f that, they should allow switching off the stereo w/out having to turn off PCM.
