Interesting, but doesn't look much like a stock radio to me.

I like the idea, but... That is the uglyest radio I've ever seen.

I think that thing is awesome! Round knobs, chrome surrounded square in the center... Looks vaguely like the originals.

I love that they make fun of 912 owners but leave 914 owners alone...

"They go on to suggest that this nav unit may also work with firstgeneration Porsche 912s, but those guys are already going too slow to care where they're heading."

I guess we are not even moving on our jack stands, so what would it matter to us.

They'll probably have station push button icons on the screen. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) That's actually classic for you old guys.

I agree !!! The small buttons have been thrown on the surface ...
The new "old looking" Becker Mexico looks way better ! ... and its cheaper too ...

It says Porsche is making them for old 911's. Seems like we just got NARP'd.
Too bad they don't make them for 914's.
