Is it me, or do the center caps look like they're different sizes????

My dealer gave me a 997 booklet which features the 911 and 911 S, it's got some nice subtle changes, at least that's my opinion. The standard steering wheel look too Cayenne-ish, although I like the steering wheel that comes with the S model.

At first I didn't like the headlight treatment of the 997, but after looking at the pictures in the booklet a few days, the 996 headlight treatment looks old.

It looks like PCM is now going to be standard on both models, although the booklet is sort of vague on that point. Does anyone know how the Sports Chrono Package Plus works and what it does?

PCM is standard, nav is optional.

Hi guys,

One quick question for you: Do you think a navigation system equipped in a US 997 will work in Europe if I put the right disc (European maps) on it?

Thanks, Giangi

I can't say for sure, but I think most other GPS systems work in both the US and Europe. I have a handheld that I've used in the US, Ireland, Belgium, UK and Mexico (w/ appropriate maps). I can't think of any reason that it wouldn't.

on the old system, you could just put in the appropriate european cd

if you do tourist delivery, they gave you the discs for the countries you planned to visit

one would hope that this holds true for the new system, too

Don - The pictures are not all in the same scale - note that the 18" wheel looks bigger than the 19"
