Default Future options you'd like to see

Wouldn't it be nice if Porsche offered built in f/r dashcams?
The front could be housed in the mirror, and the rear could be in the antenna housing on the rear.
1080p, auto record on motion when parked, option for recording while driving, with enough ram to hold a few days of video, option to offload video files to your phone. Ability to review video right there on your pcm screen. I know there's aftermarket solutions but they could charge a couple grand for this option and I'd buy it.

Head Up Display.

And please, please change the std PDK +/- to the same configuration as the PDK-S in the GT3.

Another way to over navigation and satellite radio without that stupid looking wart on my rear deck lid.

Auto park. In fact if the car could just drive itself around saving on parking altogether so much the better.

Let Waze (smartphone navigation app) run in place of Porsche's Nav system.

Bit of a no-brainer: 918/Macan style MF steering wheel.

And a fully stripped, spartanly hard sports version with everything they've learnt in terms of petrol engine tech from the 918 thrown at it.

If there's one Porsche guarantee, it's that prices go up every year!

Just built in dashcams. Seems reasonable.

Oh and how about text-to-speech to read incoming texts out loud? Wife's Lexus has that and it's a nice feature.

Some decent colors without having to go PTS.
