Had the upshift indicator on an '86 Ford Escort. That is one feature I hope I can disable...(I liked to loiter around 4000 rpm in my 993)

Doubtful, and only fully optioned models will have full featured stuff like this. More than likely it will have the capability of BT and iPod, but unless you order 19 other options, it's not active. Similar to the phone option now - where the buttons and other goodies are there, but the brain isn't.

improvements never stop guys and they're making more 997s than 996s... and likely more 998s than 997s... just go enjoy your ride.
