Porsche has a “Porsche Classic” stereo that looks the part but has satnav and Bluetooth. Really great looking until you see the price tag.

I’m expecting way, way more from Porsche.

I’ve seen retro-looking modern radios like that on Crutchfield

That’s stunning. I wish cars that came standard with infotainment had hal f that much care given to aesthetics.

I asked the 993s owner, he said it was around 1300 euros, it might be wrong, he might be ashamed of the cost

That looks so proper. I despise how every single  aftermarket head unit looks.

When I priced it I found it for $1400 USD.

Loading an unused old iPhone with several days worth of music and plugging it into the mini jack was something I could live with after all.

Bonus: I get my home Wifi where I park so songs I updated on Apple Music would get loaded auto- magically so I could basically pick right up from what I had playing in the shower getting ready for work in the morning.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it came from the same manufacturer, just with a different wiring harness and faceplate.

Also someone pointed out the Mercedes Citan van has the same unit as well:

Layout looks exactly the same.

It looks great, but it’s terrible to operate (at least the one I once tried to use was). It feels like they stuck their brand on some cheap no-name head unit, slightly re-designed the face plate, and called it a day.
