There were instrument panel display changes on the '01 cars vs. earlier models. One of them appears to have been the location of the digital speedometer on the European KM/H speedos.
I have seen photos of an '01 Euro car showing the digital speedo on the analog speedometer instrument, with the odometer/trip odo on the tach display (see "Porsche Boxster" by Brian Long, p. 165), although this may have been because of the optional trip computer on the photographed car.
The analog speedo also goes to 300km/h vs 250km/h on earlier cars. Or maybe this is an "S" vs std. issue.
Using an owner's manual from an '01 car to compare to the instruments on your '99 may be misleading.
