It needed the Panamera's interior tech to offset those things. In that respect, it's already a success.

But I'm not a fan of less buttons. The Tim Allen in me wants them to push and light up so I can grunt in approval.
Interesting take. You know more about Porsche than I do so you must have a point. But I think the 991's interior was a big step up from the 997 and besides the plasticky buttons on the console still looks fresh to me.
