Yeah. Go to Suncoastparts.com and look for the Bluetooth Module for PCM. Should give you an idea.

Why or why would anyone be concerned with an audio system in a high performance sport car? I can understand the interest if the car was a sedan but a loud sport car?

BTW, if you think the Porsche system is bad you should listen to the Ferrari audio system. It is a joke.

Speaking for myself, I bought the GT3 for a fun, weekend car or grocery getter. I actually don't plan on tracking it. I may be in a different boat than other owners, but I have the opportunity to get my "need for speed" in a dedicated race car. I also enjoy listening to music and tend to turn it up pretty loud when I am in the car regardless of whether I am running errands down the street or on a long road trip. I was one who was actually bummed the Bermester option wasn't available for the GT3 because I definitely would have ticked that box. Different strokes I guess. Maybe I need a C2S? Or maybe for the people who said the GT3 is just a beefed up Carrera it's time to change their tune.

My understanding was that there is actually a unit that needs to be installed, unfortunately it is more than a keystroke on the computer. That said, I was talking to a salesman that said they got it covered for a couple of customers after delivery.

Ahhh. Cool. I wonder if you need to register it as an Apple device to play songs bought from iTunes.. or if they finally laxed that. Will have to try it.---
Ok.. they say drm disabled since 2009. Dang. I need to take a break and catch up on video games n such..

^If you have the right option you have the USB port which you can connect your I-phone or I-pod so you can access all your preferred music.

I am with Pat L.; and I wish the car came with a kickass stereo system because I do love my music. But, on the other hand, if the "sound-plus package" still sucks I am not losing sleep. Preference is a great system but could care less if that option is not available. Would never take a great audio system over a great car. Would be great to have both but, unfortunately, the price you pay for superior performance

So will D.R.E. -- Oh well. Dang.. Pandora put Short D, on my 'Snoop Dawg' Channel. -Cranking him on the 991 Loaner BOSE w/ my Compton hat.
I luv the way my Droid runs Pandora thru the PCM Bluetooth. I'll have to order that module thru Suncoast for the GT3 as I got caught up in 'My dealer said you don't need it on the Configurator' Think it's like $800.

I'm in the same boat... really only need it to talk on the phone since I use the USB connection for my tunes.

Talk to your dealer and raise hell. Many have been able to get it tossed in retroactively.
