Im ok with a reduction in tech....gimme the bare essentials. Make AC, radio, the frunk, etc all an option, make the back seats an option too, hekk get rid of trims and let us start picking parts to throw on like its forza, i have a need for speed, too much tech crap in cars these days. Too much tech crap in general these days. An all digital dash managed by apple doesnt really have a place in a 911 imho...save it for the kias. Apple has always and will always be faux luxury, kia seems a good fit. Bought an hermes apple watch and all I can say is wow, apple watch, what garbage. All of those health tracking features could be bundled into your iphone with simple low cost wearable accessories for extended measurements but thats not a profitable faux luxury venture, I would imagine. Apples bean counters (tim cook and friends) should not be allowed anywhere near 911s. Steve Jobs would wholeheartedly agree.

hilariously apple product users have become the very people they were making fun of decades ago

tl;dr
apple = faux luxury
porsche = luxury

faux luxury is beneath luxury, so an apple managed 911 dash will never happen

I guess I have the answer to ‘who buys an Apple Hermes watch?’. My daughter was born last week but I somehow feel that this week is more significant now.
