I love the Burmester in my Cayman GTS 4.0...but on highway drives, the tire roar in the cabin can be oppressive and lessens the experience. Still very glad that I went for the upgrade.

Thanks for all of the input. I like the Air Tag idea, but my mechanic says that anyone with an iPhone can detect it in the car - is this correct? I've never used them for luggage or anything.

Anyone have experience with LoJack?

Given that my 4.0 cannot be replaced new with my particular spec - and I'll likely keep it forever - I'm wondering about fitting the LoJack "theft recovery device". Can anyone weigh in on the +/- of...

I have the GTS interior with Chalk stitching, and couldn't find a Chalk option on his website (I think the closest option was GT Silver). Has anyone gotten these in black with Chalk stitching?
