Dashboard Chronograph?

At Paul Miller in NJ, there is a Cayenne Turbo (958) with a stopwatch where the compass normally is. I can't seem to find this option anywhere on the website (Cayenne, S or Turbo) - is this a real option, is it some kind of under mentioned option code? Maybe its part of a package?

Thanks for any help figuring out how to order this, I think it looks gorgeous!

There is a rumor that all Cayennes built after 9/19 include this chronograph as standard. It still can be upgraded to a Compass. So far, this is the first confirmation I've heard that the rumor may be true. I still have questions whether this is for all models or just a CTT or CS.

The rumor also included lock/unlock button at the door panel, which I don't see it in the photos from Paul Miller.

The lock/unlock button is a real b*tch!

There should be a recall to get this retrofitted on our all vehicles !

Funny, I don't mind it at all, though I thought I would. I actually don't find myself unlocking the doors much since the vehicle does it automatically most of the time (I have E & D).

dealer told me the two above but also said the v6 models have upgraded calipers and rotors now because of something to do with bad reviews on the previous?

he said they had same as S now (i assumed calipers were same, rotors are slightly upsized)

Does this mean that my V6 built on 10/25 will include these features? Chronograph, door locks, and upgraded brakes?

Have not hear about the brakes, and my dealership can't confirm either...

The clock looks like it is from the part bin of the 911 and Panamera. It looks exactly like the sport chrono clock. The minute and hour hands are very small, and the digital display is also quite small, I think it will be difficult for the back seat passengers to see the time. Originally it was designed to be used as a stop watch. Porsche should just come up with a proper analog clock with full size hands. But well, having that thrown in without extra $ is better than nothing, may be I shouldn't complain.

I agree with you, quite frankly the compass lettering is not any bigger either. I say it is a wash either way. I still perfer it than nothing at all.

I just got confirmation from Paul Miller that the new Cayennes coming in have both the stopwatch in the dash and the door buttons. (they would not confirm until they saw it on the new arrivals.)
