Key fob realisation
Well it's obviously in the shape of a car.
Am I the only 2013 Cayenne owner who only just realised (doh!) that the remote control key fob to lock/unlock/open rear is in the shape of a car?
Actually much the same stylised shape that comes up on the PCM screen when turning on. I can't even claim I noticed it myself and wouldn't have made the connection if my stepdaughter hadn't said "hey, isn't this the same shape as your car?". Can see who the clever one is our family
Just hoping I can recover a grain of self esteem if others hadn't noticed it either - please help.

It’s real CF (I can see the fiber inside the shell), although it was an E Bay purchase from China so it was very affordable (I wanna say it was something like $20..). I have to say that it’s worn like iron for the last year, so it’s not bad option for a cheap ‘n dirty CF key fob shell

My 957 key actually is the same shape as the Cayenne. Guess Porsche cheaped-out on the newer ones and started using the same key shape for all the cars, which does look like a 911?
