Porsche Classic Radio Navigation System
 

Does anyone in the US have this old school looking radio:

Apparently, it is being sold, but not for the US. I think it can be bought in the US, but I'm not sure what maps you get with it.

I have an old cassette Kenwood, and would like to update my 911SC radio, but looking at all the newer models - they just look too blingy for my tastes. I like this more subdued appearance of the Classic Radio.

If anyone in the US has one, can you please post a pic in your car and where you bought it? Oh yeah, and does it have US maps?

Sorry not of much help here just a random comment worth about .02

Why? My cell phone has a better screen - with any map of any part of the world and oh yeah its a phone...wtf...a 3.5 inch nav window - surely they jest? I mean for real? a 3.5 nav window down at your knees...?

Never really understood a "radio" in a 911...really really will never understand nav in a 911.

If you want music hit the loud pedal on the floor - if you need to know how to navigate around Paris in your 911 - pick up your cell phone.

Back to why....sorry had to ask.

And it's FUGLY too!

No worries. To each his own I suppose. I happen to like listening to the cacophony of noise that is my 911 and occasionally like to listen to some old school tunes with it as well. :cool: To be honest, if they offered that radio without the nav system, it would make me happier as it would be cheaper.

As I said, I'd like to update my old cassette Kenwood radio, but it just looks like all the newer players have bright, dancing, multi-colored LEDs. Someone had posted about using window tint on the faceplate of their radio to cut down on the brightness of the lights.

I actually like the simple look of that radio, but I did read that installation requires some kind of cut in the dash, and that would be a deal-killer for me.

I guess no one in the US has one of these.

Get a Garmin!

My phone does all that and is lighter. =)
