Default What's the central 'eye' thingy?

Anybody know what that round optic-looking eye thing is in the center air intake?

The 991TT has the modern version of the front mounted scanner bar that was on KITT? I know that they love David Hasselhoff in Germany!

Probably something most people won't use often. Maybe for long road trips, etc.

Don't trust it!
Deactivate it before it's too late.

Looks like the adaptive cruise or night vision-- maybe all in one $$$.. picked up a off-lease 08 Alpina B7 what a PITA POS car. glad I was in it right & sold before warranty ended.

All that crap is not needed--- get floor mats and go.
