Those of us with the early Porsche PCM fitted to our 996s will know the infotainment system is ancient – so much so its role is redundant in our modern classic 911. However, if like me you use your Porsche 996 Carrera daily, connectivity to the modern world is important: wether it's using maps and navigation, communicating with friends, streaming music or listening to your favourite podcasts (mine is Road to Redline). Luckily, Porsche Classic has come up with a properly genius product that can give us all this modern-day connectivity within our modern classic, and I've been keen to test it out for some time.
It's called PCCM+ (Porsche Communication Management Plus), and takes the single-DIN PCCM unit originally made available for air-cooled classics last year, reinventing it in double-DIN format especially for the 996. But is it any good?
In this video, I get PCCM+ installed in my 996.1 Carrera and, after a few days getting used to all its new features, present you the rundown of what it's like to live with. This is the most in-depth review you'll find of Porsche PCCM+ anywhere on the internet, so I hope it suitably shows you exactly what this new infotainment system is like and answers any questions you may have about it. If you've any further questions of course, pop them in the comments below and I'll endeavour to get back to you.
