I did the Musicar Northwest tweeter upgrade on my (hopefully soon) deceased C2S, and it was an improvement but not quite the level I want yet. My memory of Burmester in a 991 Turbo made me think it's worth waiting for one versus BOSE again.

Hear ya... I was of the same opinion, then got beat up by Nick about the Burmester components quality, and after reading the last thread on the additional updates that Nick posted recently, I would definitely not limit my search to Burmester optioned cars... but would take one in a heartbeat if it matched the rest of my search criteria. GL with your search

I have the Musicar Northwest tweeter upgrade in my 991 S Cab and the Burmester in my Macan Turbo. After living with both my opinion is the Burmester is not worth the premium new. The difference in SQ doesn't justify the price. If you can find a pre-owned with the Burmester heavily discounted, go for it. That's the only way I would get it again. I bought my Macan new and paid the price. It's worth no more than a Bose equipped car on resale.

You're the buyer? Nice buy!!

Good old Brett can't even say a thank you to HFS or respond to my emails when I had a few questions

He's off my HFS recommended list.

That was a TRUE HFS listing. Glad it went to a HFS follower. I've talked to Brett before, but now throws me under the bus when I plant this in his lap

Please post in the HFS ALUMNI thread.

That looks like a good deal!
Nice car that is tastefully optioned. Low mileage. Good price!!

He bought the Aerokit car. Hotter deal than mine, but I didn’t necessarily want the extra bits.

I am just a rookie poster and screwed up my

I bought the car from Sonnen Brett listed. He bought the aerokit.

I replied to his post with the quote in line, hence the confusion.

Default lagodue aerokit

To clarify, lagodue (moi) got this aerokit the day after it appeared in Porsche Locater. Not HFS, but many thx to HFS for helping me understand the market well enough to make what was essentially an impulse purchase.

I just listed my car in the classifieds. I haven't uploaded a full set of photos because I am taking it to MAG on Thursday to get the door cards replaced. I asked for goodwill and they found out it is CPO until July so they are doing it under warranty. I will clean it up after that for good photos.
