Spare Tire-Subwoofer

Does anyone know where the spare tire and subwoofer will be located? Will the spare be located in the same place as the 911 and Boxter? I am just a little parinoid. When I ordered my Cayenne S two years ago, if you ordered the upgrade Bose system it came with a large circular subwoofer that occupied the location of the donut spare. Therefore if you wanted a spare you had to order the exterior carrier covering the back hatch. Without that--no spare. There is an inflation kit for a flat, but nothing for a blowout which I had on the Indiana toll road a month ago. It took me 8 hours to be towed to the closest Porsche dealer, have them locate a tire and get me on my way. I hope Porsche will not take that approach with the Cayman. Someone please make me feel better.

Honestly, I doubt it will come with a spare... Porsche started giving fix a flat instead..... I'm serious- Maybe thats just on Turbos and C4's because of the tranny in front. Do 987's have spares?

987's do not have spares, I doubt the Cayman will either. Not sure on the sub location if it is the same as the 987 or not.

Thanks guys. Just as I suspected. Fix a flat is just that. Good for a nail puncture, etc, but obviously worthless for a blowout. Does this make sense to any of you experts on this board? Because to this amateur who just happens to like Porsche's, it makes no sense at all. Is it a weight issue or a space issue?

Both a weight and a space issue and since you get free roadside assistance the thought is that if you have a blow out you'll call the free roadside assistance and someone will come fix your tire or tow your car in to have it fixed.

K-Man-S you are exactly right. I did not want to go in to my story, but I did call roadside assistance and an hour and a half later the flat bed truck arrived. It took 45 minutes to load and secure the truck, another hour and a half to the dealership (my daughter and I were riding in the tow truck), and the dealership said it couldn't get a tire until the next day. By the way the dealership was in the opposite direction of where I was going when I had the blowout. Roadside assistance does not send a knowledgeable Porsche service mechanic, they send the closest tow service whose job is to tow you to a Porsche dealer. Porsche dealers for the most part do not stock tires. Fortunately I did not damage the wheel. So no spare can be significant for a tire that cannot be repaired.Porsche's performance characteristics sometime get in the way of practicality. No matter, I will still be driving a Cayman.
