porsche expands pccm plus retrofit to 20092016 carsRecognizing that great sports cars deserve modern tech, Porsche is expanding its Porsche Classic Communication Management Plus (PCCM Plus) upgrade catalog. Porsche Purists love analog purity, except when it comes to using a map or, god forbid, the radio.The expansion brings factory-backed, modern touchscreen tech to more than 300,000 "future classics" built between 2009 and 2016.The newest PCCM Plus fitment specifically targets a sweet spot in Porsche's timeline-the era right before turbocharging and four-cylinder engines redefined the lineup.The coverage expansion includes:911: 997.2-generation and 991.1-generation modelsBoxster & Cayman: 987.2-generation and 981-generation modelsPCCM Plus looks like it rolled off the Zuffenhausen assembly line yesterday. It fills the center stack with a 7.0-inch high-resolution touchscreen flanked by factory-matching buttons, knobs, and typography.porsche expands pccm plus retrofit to 20092016 carsWireless CarPlay, Telemetry, and Backroad RoutingThe biggest draw here is the addition of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The head unit also packs Bluetooth streaming, Wi-Fi connectivity, a nano-SIM slot for 4G data access, and over-the-air map updates.Because it's built by Porsche for Porsches, the software ties right into the car's original wiring harness and CAN bus system:Wheel & Cluster Integration: Driver controls on factory multifunction steering wheels stay active, while turn-by-turn navigation arrows and track metadata project straight into the digital gauge cluster display.Live Telemetry: Drivers can pull up real-time engine vitals, including live oil temperature and oil pressure readings, directly on the main screen.ParkAssist Graphics: On Boxster and Cayman models fitted with factory parking sensors, the screen adds visual distance graphics to supplement the original warning chimes.Scenic Roads Navigation: For times when taking the long way home is the whole point, the onboard navigation includes a "Scenic Roads" setting that deliberately routes drivers toward twisty, panoramic tarmac instead of boring highway miles.porsche expands pccm plus retrofit to 20092016 carsTwo Variants, Dealer Installation RecommendedPorsche is offering two distinct versions of the upgraded hardware: one tailored specifically for 997.2 and 987.2 dashboard layouts, and a second variant designed for the 991.1 and 981 architecture. Specific menu options and vehicle settings vary depending on the car's original factory option sheet.While competent DIYers might be tempted to tear into their dashboards, Porsche strongly recommends having the system installed by an authorized dealer to ensure proper optical bus and electronic system pairing.Become an AutoGuide insider.
