Default Porsche classic radio navigation system

Have you seen this? Looks like a great solution to keep the classic look without going aftermarket.

The screen looks too small to be useful for navigation but looks like a good radio. What's the price?

Back in my day, the classic Nav System was a map from the Gulf Station (BTW are they still in business?).

A Garmin will cost about $200, and you can upgrade it or throw it away as required.

nice piece.
great alternative to a CDR220 with ipod cable modification.

I have a factory casette in my 96C4S.
I would consider installing this system as opposed to looking for an unlocked used CDR220 and buying a harness adapter kit etc...

Besides being a good radio ad a marginal ( because of size) Nav system it does have bluetooth for phone pairing and that is important in my neck of the woods. I tried to order one today at my local dealer and was told PCNA does not have it as an order item. It is currently only in Germany. It will be a nice replacement for the out of place looking Clarion that was in the SC when I got it. Hope to see it soon.

Has anyone installed it? Recently, I changed all my speakers and replaced the original amp under the passenger seat of my 964. While the sounds is much improved its still not crisp. A sub will make it sound a lot better but I am trying to avoid that. Would replacing the original 24 year old deck do anything to improve the sound?

I'm currently saving my pennies for this. I want it so bad. Wife nixed it as a Father's Day present :-) (can't blame her... it's a lot of $$$).

Widely available in Europe now. Had a play with one at a main dealer.
Found programming the nav incredibly irritating.
You have to turn the **** to scroll along an alphabet & then push, to select 1 letter at a time. Aaaargh !!

I have it in my 911. Love it. I wrote a review on Pelican.

I still like Goggle Maps on my iPhone.

Besides I would have to remove my IROC sticker to install this system
