992 with digital dashboard?
This is interesting, not sure I want all digital (reported that the tach stays analog)

Same dash as Panamera and Cayenne.
No surprise.

Just another item that is making cars disposable - needless electronics, a 20 year old car will likely have seen this part failed a few times - where the analog gauges would still be going strong. These mixed display dashboards, I have on on my current 5 series - not great, they don't blend well. They must know that most of their customer base really doesn't want this - yet they put it in the car.

The analog gauges on my 991.2 are frankly useless.
I have their values displayed on the TFT.
With a modern vehicle with PDK you really only require a speed number as the rest of the information is monitored by the vehicle and you will get warnings when you exceed warning values.
My wifes XC70 doesn't even have a water temp gauge.
An all electronic instrument cluster that I can configure is fine by me.
Heads up display would really be nice.
8 spd PDK is also coming.-Richard

Aren’t the gauges in the 991 an analog representation of a digital signal? It’s really just the display that’s changing. I don’t mind a digital display.

Corvettes have had HUD for 20 years.... it is not a sophisticated proposition.

Touch screens and LCD/LED dashes will make cars seem obsolete and a perpetually rapid pace. To a lay person, likely the infotainment is the most noticeable upgrade to the #2 991's and the biggest giveaway to what is dated and what is new.
