Looks like a speaker box that Unique Autosport (Whips) would build and sell to a baseball player.

I am thinking it has potential for other addons like an iPod dock.
Yes, I just purchased a 1997 993TT this summer (black with cashmere/black leather interior). Here is my console before I yanked out the factory option Fujitsu-analog-phone which of course is now obsolete and replaced with a new mount for my Blackberry:

Oh, and notice the Motorola Bluetooth control I wired in behind the dash in the upper right corner of the pic, just above the stereo controls, nice and unobtrusive. BTW, I also am very ANTI cellphone-while-driving. Always pull off the road and stop driving if using one's phone/Blackberry/Ipod....

dude, a raper? you mean a rapper I hope...


oh and JJayB- as a baseball player I take offense!


I personally like the fact that my car is old school and don't really want to put in ipods and nav systems or custom stereos. all I wanna do is a zoom zoom.

Dan, sammy's ball is probably going to go up for auction with the proceeds benefitting his charitable foundation and our bullpen catcher- I just wanted to help out...and I don't like suvs! haha.

the TT was sandy alomar jrs- I decided it was better for me to get the andial car and a 997gt3 rather than get two 993TT's , so he still has it as far as I know.

Jimmy- yeah those yankees are *******.

Al - what did you use for a microphone, the factory one or the one that came with the Bluetooth kit and if the latter, where did you mount it?

I really wanted to add this phone console to my car so I had space to mount my phone and some other electronics I wanted to put into the car..

Are you guys saying that it interferes too much with the driver's legs? Does it really protrude that far into the driver's cabin that it becomes a nuisance?? It's hard to tell from the photos.

to me it is a minor nuisance. Your best bet is to find a car with it and see for yourself
