Newbie question. just got new 991. Is there anywhere on dashboard that tells you what the outside temperature is?

 

Read the manual on settings. You can display outside temp on the multifunction display (right of the tachometer). May be helpful to download the Porsche iManual from the Porsche site - just do a web search.

 

But the answer to your question is yes.

 

It appears my friend that you forgot to check the no-cost option box on the configurator which gives you this big thick booklet all about your new car.

It's the "411 RTFM" option.

No worries, however. We're here to help.

FWIW I saw it the other day on, of all places, the G meter screen on the MFD.
