For now I guess I'll stick with iOS even though I would like to switch (sometimes).
I suppose I could get a cheap old iPhone and use it only for Google Maps via CarPlay. Just keep it plugged in the car. That would be cheaper and better than trying to retrofit some kind of Android Auto adapter. Just seems like a poor decision on Porsche's part. If access to data is a concern, then let me make that decision rather than Porsche making it for me.

Christopher, happy to let you see on my car in person. I'm in Issaquah. PM me if you want to connect.
Thank you

Enjoy!
I fell in love with them when I was a kid growing up in California. That's really awesome you have been able to get your Porsche. To me, they have always been the epitome of cool.

Interesting data. 75% are white, silver or black (including metallics).
2018 Manual take rate is 76% (US)
2019 Manual take rate is 62% (US), wonder if more PDKs are just from more people learning about the car

Or are the PDK's the result of dealer ordered cars as they used to be scared of MT's as they sat on the lot. When I lived in DC 5 years ago dealers had MT's they could not give away. Where I live now our dealer will not order an inventory MT.

The LEDs on mine are the best headlights I've ever had on a car. Highly recommend. Real driving function that will always be appreciated.

Congrats! Mine is at Houston Port, V810, waiting for a truck for the 3 hour drive up to Austin... Did U002, NA10, NA19 to V810 all on the 19th.

I did get an e-mail from corporate for the registration of "My Porsche" on the website, so that is helping the wait a bit...

I’ve put a few links on the first post here.

QQ for the T-owners - I know since we have the fabric pulls that we don't have the on-door memory package, but is there any memory function, maybe based on key or just in the MFD? 18-way seats have a lot of adjustment to not have any memory associated with them. Of course, nobody else will drive my car very often, but it would still be nice.

If you have either the 4 way or 18 way adjustable to you get memory settings\buttons. If you go with LWBS, no memory buttons. It may be package specific but I got LWBS and have no memory buttons. Wish I did actually but not more than I like the LWBS....

I've got the 4-way seats and have NO memory buttons at all.

I have 18way and no memory buttons. There might be a way to do it through the menus but I haven't looked.

Thanks all. I'll ask at delivery and see if the dealer knows. Like I said, it would be nice even if it was via the menus, but not a big deal either way.
