You can get this on the "enhanced" meter view (at least on my '23 Performance). But the "enhanced" meter view is my least favorite. I haven't seen it on the "standard" meter view. Maybe another software upgrade on newer models (like outside temperature on the "sport" meter view on 2024 and newer).
The way I get there is to just use the car's navigation, and you do have to scroll through a few screens for this one. I could see why people would never see it.

Always wanted a Porsche. If I had Real money. LOL. Glad you’re enjoying the Z.
I traded in a ā€˜19Z06 7M corvette.
I think the Z is more useable all around. The vette sat in garage too much.
And the Z is just fun to drive.
I was looking at Corvette's as well and learned that the width of them is 77.4 inches to 79.7 inches depending on the generation, which is just a hair to big for my garage. The Z is at 73.6 inches, 2018 Cayman 70.9 inches. Every inch counts

That sounds like a "That's what she said" joke.

Good choice. It is was a 911 Turbo and you had plenty of other cars for the 75% of the time your Porsche is in the shop, maybe I’d say get a 911. But a problematic Cayman compared to a Nismo, no way. I think you’ll love it.
Owned > 6 Porsches (air cooled to water cooled, turbos, GTs, etc.), none had issues other than a 997TT that wasn't maintained by it's prior owner. My 718 GT4 gets beaten like a red headed stepchild around the track, as do most GT cars. Porsches are reliable as hell. Surprised the OP had so many issues with his Porsche, but all's well that ends well!

Some day, I wish. Hope that day hasn’t passed.
