No the later CD's won't work. So the bottom line is that the PCM1 is really just an old stereo with a screen.
My buddy bought his 2000 in 2006 and even back then Porsche had stopped supporting the PCM1, i.e. they no linger paid Navtech to update the disc's. kind of sad that they stopped the support so soon after they were selling the systems.
However the real bottom line is that any smart phone can use a free GPS app that is constantly updated and will be better than anything in a car, which will be out of date almost as soon as you buy it. Such is technology these days.
