I would just add the heaters. I love them. Use them at times all year.

+10 on the bunwarmers...even on the coldest days you can adjust the heater, keep the windows up and enjoy the open air with heated seats.

Other than when parked in the garage, the top was seldom up on my 03 Boxster; so much so that on the rare occasions when I had to drive with the top up, I had to adjust to the blindspot to the left rear all over again.

Of course you will get some interesting looks from neighbors and passing cars when it's in the 30-40 degree range....

+20 on the heated seats. I've found it lets me drive comfortably on the highway in a light jacket down to about 50F, whereas without the seats, 60F is about my limit. It sounds like a small difference, but there are a large number of days in this range!

Heated seats are a must in my neck of the woods, my new Spyder has them.

The minute Porsche makes heated sports seats, a set will go in my GT3...
