Locking sound option
#16
I, too, would prefer a second button for locking as well as a confirmational "chirp".
Nevertheless if you press the button twice, unsure if it locked the first time, nothing is lost. If you lock then unlock it, but don't open the doors, they will automatically lock after 60 sec (default) adjustable to between 10 and 100 sec (by dealer).
What I miss most, though, is the automatic locking when you drive away. I don't have the sport chrono option and forgot to tell the dealer to reprogram the logic this way.

Hell, I live in Marin, CA - you need a flag to pick out your Porsche in the parking lot, there are so many. Figures that our other car is a Mercedes E series - again find yours in the parking lot.
There needs to be a button on the remote that sends a signal flare up to identify your car.

What I really want is a sexier voice for my Nav system. Brigit, as I have named her, seems nice, but is lacking in personality.
Then we can tie nav voice with locking and unlocking...
"oh baby... I'll miss you!" when locked.
"I am ready for you" when unlocked for single guys and "Where have you been?" for the married ones.

the beep when you lock your car means something isn't locked properly....can be trunk, engine compartment, glove compartment, window etc..... read you manual..it explains the beep.

Now, repeat after me:
One flash = "HI."
Two flash = "BYE BYE."
See, the car can talk. Isn't that cool? It says "hi" and "bye bye."
