Installation of latest PCM (w/nav) into '07?

Have found a possible great deal on an early 987 ('07) but it doesn't have PCM, does anyone know if it can be installed by a Porsche dealer? Including nav?

Boxster vs 911 cab--claustrophobic?

no...not another one of those threads (I don't think). I've driven both and definitely prefer the boxster based on test drives. More balanced, more useable as a DD due to dual trunks and seemingly...

What was "lost" from the 986?

I'm aware of the various changes (improvements?) made when the 987 model came out.

But for those that moved from 986 to 987, is there anything that you feel was "lost"? Something in the way the...
