I don't mind the PCM. It's simple to use so that's a win. The only thing I wish it had is WIRELESS Apple CarPlay. It looks like with the new version of the PCM, Apple Music will be integrated. That's nice. Doesn't look like it will be coming to the 982 gen though. I'm guessing 983 gen.

No thank you. All that does is add distraction and further isolate the driver from the vehicle. To each his own, but there is absolutely nothing (electronic) that my Spyder is missing.

I hate infotainment, whether it be CNBC or that stupid computer in my car.

I can't stand it, go away! I just want to drive in peace.

I’m still a huge fan of the 718 interior. I think we have a glimpse here into the next 718 interior, and probably the 992.2 as well.

I love the interior. Love physical buttons. The years of production also had the quality nicely dialed it. It feels perfect.

Wow that gives me a headache. 718 interior reminds me a lot of my '03 M5... and the e39 came out in '95. Very driver-centric.

Just right. I love buttons and analog gauges that's with my other car is a dated but new GX460 with 2010 design. I wanted to option out the parking sensors in my Cayman but they wouldn't allow it like they do for European configuration I guess it's time to do the PCM delete.

Don't forget it also plays DVD's. Next time you're parked at Burger King you can pop in your favorite Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode and impress your passenger.

After owning my GT4 for a couple of years one of the things I like the best is the interior. Simple and functional!!

If that's accurate, I'm glad they didn't follow every other mfg and slap a flatscreen tv on the dash. At least its all integrated, despite the lack of *****.

That is hideous. Really like the 982 interior, wish there was a manufacturer which still made a car with zero touchscreens.
