Hmmm. I wonder if the Porsche Phatbox is compatible with your car?

Is it MOST? That's the particular bitch with the 987s--they went to the fiber optic ring system for peripherals.

Nope. But there may be aftermarket adapters to use either a Kenwood changer or an "old Alpine" changer, and the Phatbox can emulate both of those. There's also the VW / Audi Phatbox flavors if you can convert to one of those.

The Dension is about the only thing I can find that provides inputs and translates them into something the MOST ring can understand. There may be others, but a quick scan of the boards hasn't turned them up.

I may ultimately go that route, but it won't be for a while yet. I'm still feeling poor from buying the car.

Yeah, I seriously love this frickin' car.
Especially on a day like today, when it's just sort of almost warm enough to put the top down--even though there are still four foot piles of snow everywhere.

I am having a remarkably hard time getting this post and the associated photo to work, BTW.

Gorgeous.

How many consecutive blue cars is this for you now?

Blue is the best color!!! More power to him for recognizing this early on.

Do the sidemarkers... Love the cobalt.

+1... sidemarkers will be a good choice.

Holy shit it's been 10 years.

Congrats!

I miss mine...

Wow. Longevity!

Is that place still in business? It used to be the Enthusiast Auto of the DC-area...

It’s funny going back and reading this thread; over the years I’ve replaced the steering wheel with a sport model, added first an RF modulator and then a Dension, added clear markers, and repacked the sticky knobs (that turned out to be a $150 set of parts, fwiw). Also added the sport exhaust and a GT3 shift knob, and 20,000 miles.

Relatively light interventions, considering how long you've had it.

20,000 miles in 10 years? What...do you drive it backwards to keep the miles down?

I was thinking the same thing. That's a good 9 months for us.

I drive it once every few weeks in the winter and probably once or twice a week in the summer. I’d probably drive it more if it weren’t such a pain to uncover and unplug, but the upside is that means I rarely drive it in the rain.

It was funny driving it today—it’s the slowest of my three cars by a pretty substantial margin, and more than that it’s power delivery is languid compared to the other two. But it’s so precise and easy to place—such a pleasure to drive, especially with the top down.

Oh, no, I don't think so--I went looking for their website 5 or so years ago and it seemed to be gone.
