Backup camera

Now that the 15s are showing up, anyone get one yet? Love to see pictures and a review.

Yes, I took delivery of my '15 with the backup camera including front and rear park assist last week. I don't have a picture, but saw a post on Rennlist and someone posted the following link.

There is an image of the camera view with the park assist overlay for this car.

I would have bought the camera without the park assist had the option been available. That said, I'm glad they came together, I really like the park assist as well.

The picture presented from the rear view camera is not high definition; it is a little fuzzy, but it is sufficient for its purpose. the yellow bars are dynamic and curve to define your predicted path depending on the steering input.

I find the park assist to be very helpful for getting in and out of the garage and driveway. It picks up the walls and various items near the car well. You get a slow beep as you approach an object and it speeds up in frequency as you get closer, eventually leading to a solid tone when you are about 6 inches from an object. the sensors wrap around the side a little as well. I know from testing the park assist will not pick up curbs or other low objects.

Hope this helps a little.

Yes, helped quite a bit as I have a Targa on order with the camera and as it turns out the same interior and carbon fiber trim as the car you posted. Can't wait!!
