In the 991TT the swivel mechanism will be motorized and activated via a joystick!

I think they should hook it up to the headlights or the rear wheels in the GT3. Now THAT would ROCK!!!

I knew.
It's not new. It's not even news. Or gnus. . .
Ever see the book that comes in the glove box?
Who knows what other wonderful features you may find!

Not stated in the user manual but the timer is used to tell you your average time in backing out of your driveway
