Default 2008 Cayenne Order Guide

I received a copy of the 2008 Cayenne Order Guide this week and thought I would pass on a few observations:

1. Appears that all Cayenne Models will come with TPMS
2. PCM is 2.1 Version
3. Can't find any info on IPOD integration
4. There is at least one interesting interior option: Full Leather, Chestnut Natural Leather with Black.
5. Horse Power is up considerably on all models, dealer tells me it is due to Direct Injection on the V8s coupled with 4.8 liter
6. New Factory 21" Sportplus Wheel Option (no pictures)
7. New 18" Turbo Wheel (There is a picture on Edmunds)
8.There are alot more customer tailoring (interior) options than I remember but it has been awhile since I bought mine so this might be normal.

That's about it, I am going to be ordering a Turbo next week for April delivery.

Merry Christmas to all of you!!

There's nothing in the order guide about Bluetooth! There are two options for phone, both require sim chip, one has a hand set, the other does not.

No Bluetooth?! This is an outrage.

Nothing left to do except sit back , wait for Porsche to release PCM 3.0, watch all the 'new' DVD based PCM 2.1 owners scream when they find out they can not upgrade their PCM's.......wait, this sounds familiar......give me a minute.....oh, yes, of course, the same thing happened with the INFAMOUS (hey, Kooser, that's you) CD-ROM to DVD based NAV PCM update.......

Hey, Kooser, how did that turn out anyways

BMW has had bluetooth for ~5 years now. Even Nissan now offers it. Why is Porsche so behind here?
