"Last ofs" are big in the sports car collector market these days, though. Also I'd say that the PCM tech is outdated but it does make the interior look nicer.


VVVV
Yeah, I personally think it's a tremendously worthwhile improvement in functionality and appearance over the PCM 2.0 units but some people only value the bleeding edge of tech in their cars, and everything else is "outdated."

OMG, the PCM is MUCH MUCH nicer in the 09's in my opinion and on my car - a 2012 (the same one). I don't find it outdated at all, for a car. I think it's bloody awesome, actually!

I agree, the PCM in my 07 TT was useless. The PCM in my 09 TT and 11 CTT is much improved. Modern by today's standards, NOT, but still functional with Bluetooth, hands free, and etc. I don't need a lot of bells and whistles, just Sirius/XM and a few other functions so I'm happy with my OEM PCM's.

Thanks!

I don't expect a major "collectible" push on the 09's either but I do think they will hold their value better than the 07-08's for sure, and are (worst case) not going to drop much from where they are now. It seems like a free option to daily drive it for years with little depreciation as long as I don't crush it with miles (my commute is 1 mile). If I'm wrong, I had a lot of fun along the way...

That Carmax sticker feels really out of place on the back of that car.

Yes indeed...and ironically difficult to remove!
