Default NoFun Facts about 991
Just a counter thread to Fun Facts to vent and document things that need a resolution or could have been better

1. The reverse camera resolution sucks

2. The MFD doesn’t display Radio Presets (in 911 only)

After all the years of owning my car I still haven’t seen the engine.

The fan HAS to come on every time you initially enter the car.

The word "OFF" on the HVAC unit has a smaller upper case "F" which is an eye sore.

My only two gripes with the car.

Hmm, imagine explaining these "complaints" to Ferry Porsche, or Steve McQueen.

Otherwise you might confuse it with a setting of 255 degrees.

Car is much too pretty to drill holes for license plates. A real bummer.

- Why can't I switch off my radio once and for good with the power **** click?
- The maps look dated, no matter what is map view settings,
- Phone operations isn't optimal.
- No Android Auto

Car excels, infotainment sucks, but this is OK.

Engine idle shutoff needs to be deactivated each time I get into the car. Pain in the butt.
