In my seemingly neverending search for a 997 C2S, one of my "absolute" requirements was the Bose surround sound system. My reasoning for this was that I had it in my Boxster and I worry that the stock "Porsche" system just wouldn't sound as good and I would regret buying a car without Bose. And of course it can only be factory fitted so I can't change my mind without changing the entire car.
However, this limits the cars available by quite a lot (and the Bose fitted ones tend to be priced at a premium) and it got me thinking - are there aftermarket sound systems that can be installed, preferably just replacing the stock speakers and adding a subwoofer (somewhere?), that sound just as good or better than the Bose? If so, then it would open up many more possibilities to me and I could get myself into my 997 quicker than I seem to be achieving at the moment. :?
Finally, does not having a Bose system affect resale (ie are there lots of people like me or am I just weird)?
Thanks again for any advice!!!
