For those who have owned their cars for more than 3 years, who ended up keeping Porsche Connect?

 

I’ve had it on 3-992s never renewed it with the exception of the locator pretty worthless,

 

I renewed mine at the three year mark in January as I actually do like most of the silly features that it offers but especially since my car has that odd feature of self locking itself while I am fueling it up every once in a while. With it I can take my phone out and unlock my car if it ever happens again while the windows are up. I also keep my key in my house in a drawer far away from my car and invariably when I am put-zing around in the garage my car is locked, and I want to get in it for some reason, I just take my phone out and unlock it without having to run inside and get my key and then I lock it back up via my phone when I'm done. To me its pretty cheap at $20 bucks a month for the fuel remaining, the oil level, tire pressure etc. YMMV

 

I just got a email today letting me know my subscription will expire next month on my ‘23 Turbo S Cab. I rarely use it so I think I’ll let it lapse and see if I miss it (whcih I doubt). I can can always renew it at any point in the future.

 

I renewed mine for the location features. I think you need it for the lock/unlock features as well.

 

No value that I can discern.

 

The fact you can now do it monthly is a good improvement. I’ve done it to get maps updated then cancelled again

 

What is the cost? Do they provide discount if you don't renew after a few months?

I really like the tracking - a stand alone GPS tracker is around $120/annually.

 

It’s $20 a month.

 

I think that price varies by model. My Touring is 18 bucks a month. The lock and unlock feature and location is nice to have. I constantly forget to lock my car and use it a lot for that purpose. Plus the vehicle tracking…

 

For 2026 models it's included for 10 years. That should tell you how much customers value it.

 

I rounded up. It’s $18.99.

 

To be fair, the price of the cars are significantly higher now so they should include it. But I get your point.
