Default Mechanical LSD ?

I was looking at the configurator this AM and did not see a box to check for LSD. Is this a computer controlled item now?

Mechanical differential lock with PTV on manual, and electronic differential lock with PTV if PDK.

If you order it with PTV and manual gearbox it gets a 22/ 27 LSD.

If you order it with PTV Plus, std in PDK Carrera S, then it comes with an electronic rear differential called CRDL (Controlled rear differential lock).
It comes with variable locking from 0 to 100%.

Yeah, the system on the PDK equipped cars pretty much works identically to the system in the 458 Italia. It's another reason I think it's a huge mistake to not get the PDK.
