Well, aren't we lucky that legislators have not yet come up with the idea of banning potentially-distracting passengers.

Re: What I would like to see improved on the 987

Agree with all of the above, especially that key!

Also we should get Bluetooth phone capability instead of the stupid SIM-card-swap system.

Re: Key issue

Does anybody know of a third party key manufacturer? Maybe they offer the possibility to clone your car key but in a better package (folding key, flush buttons, light)?

IPOD integration..I mean, get with it!
Mercedes-Benz style key (I'm not impressed with the Audi key)

Re: What I would like to see improved on the 987

I've actually been thinking about the key more frequently as of late...I would love to see Porsche make a key head made of brushed stainless steel with an embossed Porsche logo made of light chrome accents. It would be heavy to excude quality (not this flimsy plastic crap). It would allow you to unlatch the top and lower it, lock/unlock, open each of the two trunks, etc. How they would do this I'm not sure, but I have faith in Porsche engineers

The key itself would be like Mercedes, so nothing sticking out.

I have too much time on my hands...

If Porsche would make such a key it would CERTAINLY be optional, at..., let's say min. 500 EURO !!
