Speed Limit Display
Yesterday I found the cool little feature that displays the speed limit of the road in the multi-function display. Does this work via a camera reading the posted limits like in BMWs I’ve had or is it using info in the mapping database? I’m guessing the latter as I don’t see any forward facing camera on my car.

Don't get used to it being in the MFD. In the 991.2 it's only available on the GPS screen. Basically useless. Really frustrating when I'm used to it being in the MFD like my Boxster.

I really like the electronic ‘4th dial’ in the display...allows control of so many settings and it’s got a lot of options to configure different information displays.
Also I fitted the Rennline magnetic phone mount and it holds the phone at such a perfect angle just to the right of the gear selector that I almost feel like my car has Apple Carplay! I highly recommend it.

Apple CarPlay is definitely a plus though.
