FWIW, I just installed this Kenwood Excelon unit on Monday.

Kenwood KMM-X704

Bluetooth, dual USB, streaming (Pandora, Spotify), Sirius connection, handsfree phone, etc. Like the other high-end Kenwood units, it has customizable colors and dimming levels, so I was able to match the other gauges in my 2002 986S perfectly. The dual USB feature was important to me, since I like to keep my iPhone charging from the front USB in one of the cupholders above the radio, while the second USB connection runs under my center console and into the console storage area, to a 128GB flash drive that has ~500 albums saved in lossless FLAC format for better sound quality than the compressed MP3s on my iPhone.

The new Porsche units are nice, but they cost literally 10X as much as a decent aftermarket headunit.
